Business Insider Kindly Reminds Us That Donald Trump Went To Penn

Business Insider recently released a list of the "30 Most Successful UPenn Alumni Of All Time," and like most other publications who write about us, their research (we use that term loosely) proved superficial and not groundbreaking all.

Like, did you know that Ben Franklin founded Penn? And that John Legend was in a mysterious "jazz a cappella group" while he was a student here? And that Ivanka Trump is Donald Trump's daughter, and they both went here? GET OUT.

Seriously, the folks over at Business Insider really missed the mark with this one. Most people on the list are just the same Wharton type over and over. We get it: Penn produces a lot of entrepreneurs. But why no mention of Vanessa Bayer? Or Whitney CummingsOR THE GUY WHO COINED THE TERM 'WASP'?

Okay, so we might be a bit on edge for other reasons this week, but still, your coverage could've been a little more comprehensive, Business Insider.
