While Penn's Newest Move Onto Campus, Penn's Oldest Stake Their Territory (VIDEOS)

Friday, September 4, 2009


As you'll see above, yesterday was the start of move-in day for the freshmen at Penn.

Let's also not forget about these other residents of Penn who seem to be the subject/fodder for many Penn videos I've covered HERE over the years...

"That's a nice name tag": The freshman get to know one another

Saturday, September 1, 2007

"Oh, which part of Long Island are you from?"

These are the types of questions that will be buzzing around campus this week.

So I found this improv-type video online for the freshman's "NSO" (New Student Orientation)...which led me to think back to my own experiences as a freshman and two tips (for better or worse) which I may be able to impart to the class of 2011 for this week of "integration".

REMEMBERING NAMES

>When I went to school in the mid 90's, apparently I was one of a few who had a hologram of a "P" on my Penn card. I asked others whose name I had forgotten if I could see their Penn card to see if they too had that crazy P hologram on their card. Soon enough I remembered "Stacy''s name.

>When I rushed, I brought my friend Lauren to some of the earlier events and had her introduce herself first to the brothers. Once the brothers then mentioned their name to her, I suddenly remembered "Jon" and "Jason's" names.

Again, these are for better or worse.

Okay, worse.

Creepy Quaker Costume?

Friday, August 31, 2007

More and more photos of C'11 freshman on campus appear on facebook. This of Jessie Spellman (C'11) (she's the one on the left in the blue shirt).

Is it me or is that Penn Quaker costume a bit creepy looking?

Dorm rooms are like Facebook Profile pages...

More move-in photos have surfaced on facebook. ...This set from Sydney Fenkell (C'11).

Looking at her photos and other undergrad photos, I realized decorating your first dorm room is like decorating your facebook/myspace/friendster profile pages.

It's all about you.

Like your profile pages, your dorm room should display your friends, showcase lots of colors and (hopefully) contain a few "hugs" and "pokes" here and there.

Come on you creative quakers out there, how else are dorm rooms like social networking profile pages? Comment below!

Class of 2011 move-in continues!...and so do the memories!

Wednesday, August 29, 2007

Another bunch of move-in photos finds its way onto facebook. This round from Michael Tomback (C'11), new resident of Hill House.

It's interesting to note how the class of 2011 is already so well connected. Over the summer I've noticed that these now freshman had already made facebook friends (in the hundreds!) with their new Penn classmates without even meeting them. In this evolving technology age, over this past week, it very reminiscent to see most of this class' facebook "status" messages echoing sentiments of sadness and anticipation for their new lives awaiting them in Philadelphia.

Class of 2011 moves in!

This weekend the class of 2011 moved in!

Sam Oldak, one class of 2011-er uploaded a picture of his Hill House dormroom (above) on facebook. ...A little smaller than my 5th floor-without-an-elevator lower Quad (Rodney 535)room, but same idea.

What was/is your dorm room like? Comment below.
