This Locust Walk Video Reminds Me of The First Mask and Wig Bit I Ever Starred In

In continuing my "Delicious Leftovers" week, the following 2 videos were submitted by Kiera Reilly (C'93, Director, Alumni Travel, Associate Director, Global Alumni Network) about 2 years ago and somehow they slipped through the cracks.

In the following clip, Phi Kappa Sigma raises money for Leukemia on Locust Walk via a bike "ride-athon".  How many of these "-athons" have we all been a part of in one form or another on Locust Walk?

This actually reminds me of one of the first bits I ever starred in for Mask and Wig when I was a freshman. It was called "Gamma-Lam Read-athon".  The premise of the bit had sorority sisters trying to draw attention to their "readathon" (guy on rocking chair sleeping).  After several "Gamma-Lam Readathon, check it outs" and "any spare change will do", a guy walks by and pulls out his kidney and puts it in the money jar.   The bit ended with "organ donors get no respect".  I realize as I'm writing this that this doesn't exactly translate, but it was funny.

Speaking of Locust Walk, check out this "Fall" nighttime video:

Now and Then Thursdays: Penn's Campus Gets Swanky

As you may have heard from the videos of President Gutmann's visit to Los Angeles, the campus will be undergoing a pretty massive expansion shortly.

In my days ('92-'96), there was lots of construction on campus, but my biggest memory had to do with it taking my 4+ undergrad years to redo the exterior of College Hall. (!)

Thanks to Kiera Reilly (C'93, Director, Alumni Education & Travel), we now have exclusive DuelingTampons.com video bringing you some changes happening on campus.

In this installment, Kiera walks down Chestnut Street towards Center City and 34th Street. On the left, note Domus the newly built luxury apartments (there's a pool in here people!). Looks like the campus continues to be getting high end.

3400 Chestnut: Part 2

To give you better reference, THIS VIDEO will show you that Kiera is at the intersection of 34th and Chestnut, where you have Domus on the northwest corner, Hill Field on the south east corner and the Law School on the south west corner.

Speaking of a changing campus, have you checked out this shocking video from last year's Convention Center implosion?
