Once again, Penn finds itself .500 on the week. For the second time in as many weekends, both the men’s and women’s swimming and diving teams split their respective Ivy dual meets, with both programs defeating Brown while falling to Harvard on Saturday. On the men’s side, the Quakers finished their regular season against the Ivy League with a 203-95 win over Brown and a 190-108 loss to Harvard. The men’s squad was anchored by its pair of standout juniors, as Eric Schultz and Chris Swanson both scored maximum points for Penn in their freestyle events.

Obama is expected to propose a plan to provide free community college for millions of students in his Tuesday 'State of the Union.' Gutmann appeared on CNBC's "On the Money," talking about the positives of increased opportunities for higher education. Even though Penn's price of tuition continues to rise, the University has a all-grant, no-loan financial aid policy.

Amy Gutmann is far from alone as a woman leading an Ivy League institution: starting in July, there will be three others. Elizabeth Garrett is set to take over the presidency at Cornell in July, the beginning of Cornell's fiscal year, joining Gutmann, Drew Gilpin Faust (Harvard) and Christina H.
