Trump appearance relocated to Irvine The television show was originally scheduled to be taped in the University Museum's Harrison Auditorium. Free tickets will be available to those with a PennCard beginning Tuesday morning at the Annenberg Box office. There is a limit of two tickets per person. Although organizers said the 4 p.m. starting time would remain as previously scheduled, audience members must be seated in Irvine Auditorium at 3:30 p.m. or they will lose their seats, according to Engineering junior Theo LeCompte, co-chairperson of Connaissance. At that time, about 50 to 100 standby tickets will be handed out to those waiting in line in order to fill the 1,200-seat venue. According to LeCompte, Hardball producers asked the University to change venus in order to accommodate more students as well as needed television equipment. Trump, a 1968 Wharton graduate, is currently seeking the presidential nomination of the Reform Party. Penn is the second stop on Hardball's college tour, which is interviewing a number of presidential hopefuls at colleges and universities across the country. -- Eric Dash
