Never in my life have I received as many LinkedIn notifications as I have this summer. Everyone I’ve ever met wants to connect: childhood frenemies, classmates I’ve never spoken to, niche family friends — likely in pursuit of the coveted 500+ connections — all piling up in my inbox. As college students, we’ve inevitably reached the point in our lives where the looming thought of careers is becoming more pressing; therefore, an increase in LinkedIn use is perfectly logical.

A second chance often takes on different meanings for different people. For Penn baseball, a second chance meant a shot at an Ivy League championship — an opportunity that the Quakers would not let go.
University leadership correctly recognized that the recent encampment protest placed many members of the Penn community “under threat.” Reading now how the story is trying to be twisted through mental gymnastics is dangerous, not only to the community members who have been under threat but also to the students who are being led to believe that breaking the law is acceptable. Reading statements from the Penn chapter of the American Association of University Professors throughout the year — as well as their press conference that paid so much attention to the police who cleared the encampment, and no attention to how we got there — is a remarkable interpretation of the facts of the case, and especially breathtaking from scholars who claim to have expertise in critical thinking. Professors, to me, are individuals whom students should look up to as those who search for the truth. But, reading statement after statement throughout the year, disappointingly, it seems that the truth for AAUP-Penn is full of misstatements and highly biased interpretations.
My time at The Daily Pennsylvanian taught me an important lesson about the communities we’re a part of and why we pour so much of ourselves into the spaces we inhabit. I originally joined the organization during my first semester at Penn, hoping to surround myself with like-minded people while my classmates were all scattered across the globe due to the pandemic. Four years later, I now know that in addition to managing classes, work, and other commitments, we must be intentional about immersing ourselves in spaces that help us grow and be a positive force for change.
