Tracy McIntosh, the former Penn Neurosurgery professor who pleaded no contest in December 2004 to sexually assaulting his college roommate's then-23-year-old niece in 2002, will be resentenced this morning in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas.
A Delaware Superior Court judge has granted a change-of-venue request from lawyers for Wharton undergraduate Irina Malinovskaya should she be tried a fourth time.
Prosecutors are expected to decide later this month whether to try Wharton undergraduate Irina Malinovskaya a fourth time for first-degree murder.
Former Wharton senior Jason Myers, who was arrested on Nov. 29 for ten burglaries he allegedly committed in Harnwell College House over Thanksgiving break, was held for trial by Judge Deborah Shelton Griffin at his Jan. 25 preliminary hearing.
AlliedBarton security guards at Penn and Temple University received significant increases in wages and sick leave last week.
Former neurosurgery professor Tracy McIntosh's resentencing hearing has been pushed back from today to Feb. 13 due to scheduling conflicts.
The crime cycle often begins with an unfinished education and chronic unemployment and ends with a prison sentence. Then the cycle begins again, as getting hired with a criminal record is nearly impossible.
Kurt Mitman, the Economics graduate student who took a leave of absence from Penn last January when his academic-release privileges from a Bucks County prison were revoked, has resumed classes after having been paroled in September.
"The best defense is a spirited offense," the saying goes. And our generation has been forced to go on the defense. We're under constant assault from politicians, pundits and ex-hippies, explaining away our cohort's failure to stir up mass resistance and apologizing for our supposed apathy.

Most people wouldn't mention "ag school" and "Ivy League" in the same breath. This is probably because along with Penn, everyone forgets about that school up in Ithaca. Nonetheless, I was surprised to learn recently that Yale did, indeed, have an ag program of sorts - a food-and-agriculture concentration within their environmental-studies department.

Out in the flyover, we don't get a lot of coastal news.

It costs almost $50,000 a year to attend Penn, but tuition revenue doesn't come close to supplying the amount of money it takes to run this university. Penn relies on endowment profit to pay for financial aid, new facilities, academic programming and much of the rest of the operating budget.
I'm scared of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
Many of those who have followed the AlliedBarton guard unionization controversy have been subtly manipulated into believing that workers should only organize in response to labor-rights violations.
Freshman year includes many collective rites of passage: NSO Convocation, taking a writing seminar, the meal plan.
