Against Yale on Friday, the Penn field hockey team led only for only four minutes and 21 seconds. But the Bulldogs led for even less -- 3:56, and the Quakers were in front when it counted, winning 4-3 in overtime. The team's weekend was not perfect however, as it did lose to No.

Eight months after being endorsed, iTunesU is now officially a resource for the Penn community. The Undergraduate Assembly brought in Apple representatives last Friday to discuss and spread awareness about the program. iTunesU is an online digital media database located in the iTunes Store, accessible through any version of iTunes.

The major construction projects and what their completion will mean for the University.

This Saturday, the University will be kicking off the largest fundraising campaign in its history. The multi-billion-dollar goal is set to expand programs like student financial aid, academic research and infrastructure. Along with these goals are plans to transform the postal lands, which will have an enormous impact on the Philadelphia community.

As alumni and administrators gear up for one of the most ambitious fundraising campaigns to date, many students aren't exactly sure what the weekend's festivities are all about.

With tomorrow's launch of the long-anticipated public phase of the University's capital campaign following the acquisition of 24 acres of postal lands this summer, it seems like the stars are aligning for Penn. Is it possible that the timing is nothing but a coincidence? Actually, yes, says Executive Vice President Craig Carnaroli: The two projects were developed apart from each other, but they managed to fit together quite nicely.

Got plans this Saturday night? Much to the University's chagrin, we're guessing they don't involve partaking in the "Celebration on the Green," - a University-wide party on College Green to kick off the highly anticipated capital campaign that will fund Penn's development of the postal lands.

As the Penn field hockey team prepares for tonight's game against Yale, the same feelings come to mind as did last season: This one is a must win. "This is an Ivy game and it is imperative that we win this one," Quakers coach Val Cloud said. Just like last year, the Quakers (6-7, 2-2 Ivy) enter their game against the Bulldogs in the middle of the Ivy League with a 2-2 record.

He's still playing basketball, but sometimes it seems like Mark Zoller is playing soccer. In a league that features relegation and promotion, a 10-month schedule with one game per week, a foreign language and chanting fans, the former Penn forward is far from his comfort zone.

It's never too late to do some back-to-school shopping. Hundreds of alumni coming back to campus this weekend will be greeted by, among other things, a bookstore revamped for their return.

During a recent excursion to Chestnut Hill, my wife and I came across vintage maps of West Philadelphia at the turn of the last century. These illustrated images depicted land-use patterns of a heavily industrialized area, while a few tiny adjacent parcels defined the new campus of the recently transplanted University of Pennsylvania.

Week Six seems an odd time to be cooking up title scenarios, but Yale's early dominance means it's never too soon to start talking elimination. And while the consensus No. 1 gets a tough road test tomorrow at Franklin Field, the only other unbeaten Ivy League team is getting an odd sense of deja vu this weekend.

If the Quakers hope to get past Ivy League volleyball heavyweights Dartmouth and Harvard this weekend, they'll have to start to change a disturbing trend this season: Of their 10 wins, only two have come against teams that are .500 or better. Even more telling is the overall records of the teams they've played.

Traveling downtown just got a bit less exclusive. The Octobus, a Graduate and Professional Student Assembly initiative that provides transportation between Penn's campus and 14th Street, was recently opened to undergraduates, giving another option for travel into Center City.

WILMINGTON, Del. - Wharton undergraduate Irina Malinovskaya was called to the stand by the defense yesterday, marking a pivotal juncture in a trial that has now lasted over a month. Malinovskaya is being tried a third time for the 2004 murder of Temple University graduate student Irina Zlotnikov, the then-girlfriend of Malinovskaya's ex-boyfriend Robert Bondar.

Riding its first 3-0 league start in three years, the Penn women's soccer team has adopted an "if-it-ain't-broke" mentality as the season barrels down the home stretch. So far, it's hard to argue with the results. Winners of four straight, including those three Ivy triumphs, Penn (9-2-1, 3-0 Ivy) hopes to stay sharp tomorrow afternoon at Rhodes Field in a pivotal Ancient Eight showdown with Yale (7-5, 2-1).
