Penn has done a good job making sure employees have homes in the area; these programs should be expanded to the community at large.
Peyton Manning is used to performing in front of a hostile crowd, so last night in Irvine Auditorium the Super Bowl MVP felt out of his element when he received a standing ovation before saying a word.
With so many unhappy, ticket-less students, SPEC should get creative.

The Penn softball team had dug itself into a little hole during the second game of its 7-2 and 8-6 doubleheader losses to Lehigh. Unable to chip away at a 5-1 third-inning deficit in the second game, the Quakers (12-8) badly needed an offensive spark. The bases were loaded as senior Kaelin Ainley stepped to the plate after a Teresa Leyden single up the middle, an error by Lehigh pitcher Tiffany Curtis left Stephanie Reichert safe on first and Julia Cheney walked.
Jarron Smith just needed a little tweak. The junior starts about every other game, but with a three-for-four day in Penn's 11-5 win over Saint Joseph's in the opening round of the Liberty Bell Classic, he has made his case for a full-time spot out in right field.

Student minority groups are speaking out against the Division of Public Safety in response to an incident last week in which a black College student was detained, calling it part of a larger trend of bias-based profiling.
In four straight games before yesterday, Penn's relievers had conceded nine runs in 10 and two-thirds innings. So Quakers coach John Cole was probably not a pillar of confidence as he watched his starting pitcher concede a walk, a single, and a three-run homer to the first three Saint Joseph's hitters he faced yesterday.
Most Penn professors have Ph.D.'s; Kal Penn has a Teen Choice Award nomination. Officials announced over the weekend that Penn, an actor best-known for his role in the 2004 comedy Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle, will teach two courses at the University next spring.

By Albert Sun Staff Writer asun@sas.upenn.edu No Penn students have been named as defendants in the latest wave of lawsuits from the Recording Industry Association of America, but activity from the RIAA indicates that litigation may be on the way. The RIAA recently began targeting college students as part of a continued effort to stem music piracy that has gone on for almost four years.
Now the hard part begins. After cruising through its first seven games with only a single hitch - a road loss to Northwestern - the Penn women's lacrosse team will begin the most difficult part of its schedule tonight when it travels to Baltimore to face dangerous No.
As ready as high-school seniors may feel for college, taking a year off can ease the transition and help narrow interests.
