STREET Presents: Identity

This week, Street asks, "Who are you?" in our identity issue, and we got enough answers to fill every section of our magazine. Identity isn't just the crisis you have at 3am after changing your major for the fourth time. It's music; it's film; it's food - and you can read all about it here. 

  • They may be just be characters on reels, but these characters have made a real impact on these six Penn students.
  • Coming out? More like strutting out. 
  • Vegan dispatch: If you are what you eat, then you're just...hungry. Baking is good for the soul and this recipe is making even hungrier.
  • Plot twist: Lowbrow tells the truth this week. Read the best stories from Penn comedians.
  • Words are important to express how we feel and perceive ourselves, but so are pictures. A few students submitted their self-portraits of confusion, fragmentation and happiness.

  • We asks students to describe Penn in 3 words. They're short, but not all sweet.

  • You helped us build a playlist all about identity, give it a listen. 

  • Who exactly is the face of Penn? Backpage tried to make one.

  • Who are you? Eight students answered.
