A Dennie For Your Thoughts | A lecture about seminars

Most of the lectures I’ve taken at Penn have left me wanting more, while my few seminars have actually challenged me intellectually.

Eric Banecker | Need for more dialogue about abortion

I challenge all of us to assist our country in having a mature, reasoned — but passionate — discussion on the nature of abortion.

Rachel Squire and Lindsay Eierman | Extremity for an extreme issue

The advertising campaign and the topics discussed in The Vagina Monologues are extreme. But remember, sexual violence is an extreme issue.

Ash Wednesday | Keeping design local

I was excited that a Philadelphia firm won a competition to design the new U.S. embassy in London. Because, despite the decrease in star power, there is real value in investing in local architects.

In Case You Missed Me | Fine with not having a job yet

I’m tired of everyone acting like we should all have our dream jobs completely figured out by now. Because the majority of us don’t. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that.

Roberts Rules | College admissions problems go viral

Having the option of submitting a one-minute YouTube video that “says something about you” could exacerbate the pressure of the college-applications process.

Slip of the Chung | How to choose a lab: 101

The University should organize a seminar series that helps students decide which labs to join.

That's What Schwenk Said | Actually looking forward to Huntsman

Huntsman as a speaker has tremendous potential, and anybody carrying around actual anger about it really needs to take a breath.

Scientifically Blonde | Beyond Computer Engineer Barbie

I’m by no means knocking Barbie’s new career choice as a Computer Engineer, I just think it’s going to take more than a doll to bring about the gender balance we need.

Rea-lity Check | Deflate grades' importance

Grades are overrated. Yeah, I said it. Grades are so arbitrary, it’s hard to take them seriously as an indicator of future success. Just work hard in your classes, and take the ones you want to work hard in.
