This wasn't how Kevin Egee imagined his senior year ending. Considering Penn made the NCAA Tournament in both his freshman and sophomore years, the Quakers' 9-16 (5-6 Ivy) record isn't exactly what Egee - and fellow active seniors Cam Lewis and Brennan Votel - had in mind for their final season in Red and Blue.

Some things, like gin and tonic or Beyonce and Jay-Z, are just meant to be together. An amicable relationship between Penn and Georgetown's baseball teams isn't one of them. Having already faced the Hoyas twice in their season opener last weekend, the Quakers will play them four additional times this weekend at Rollins College, as Penn heads down to Winter Park, Fla.

Forget the Grapefruit League - if you're looking for some good ball this break, the Ivy League will be out in full force in the Sunshine State. The Penn softball team will be one of five Ivy teams - Brown, Columbia, Cornell and Yale are the others - to head to Florida for the annual Rebel Spring Games, a month-long collegiate tournament held in Kissimmee.

Aside from the men's basketball team's performance, the new student-ticket policies have been some of the more popular gameday fodder this season. Breaking from its previous policy, the Athletic Department announced last September that the student section would be entirely general admission.

In economic and business classes across campus, students learn about labor as an abstraction, as a commodity, as something to be traded on the market. But for Peter Ho and three other hotel workers who spoke last week with a group of students, faculty and staff, labor is deeply personal.

Did you spend more time in piano lessons or watching TV when you were growing up? The answer may depend largely on your social class. Sociologist Annette Lareau addressed the idea of class differences in child-rearing practices during an event held by the Penn Education Society last night in Houston Hall.

"The time has come to think about sex," Gayle Rubin wrote 25 years ago as the opening of her paper Thinking Sex. Now that time has come again. Rethinking Sex: Gender and Sexuality Studies State of the Field Conference opened last night at the Penn Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology.

In three years of participating in on-campus recruiting, College and Wharton senior Ravi Naresh is three for three - summer internships after his sophomore and junior years and a full-time job for after graduation. But Naresh is just one of approximately 1,800 students that go through the on-campus recruiting process each year, and the picture isn't quite as rosy for everyone else.

The Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching studied 40 U.S. engineering schools last month and found that most schools place heavy emphasis on textbook learning and not enough on hands-on experience, leaving students unprepared for the real world.

For some of Penn's Greek houses, Earth Day is coming a little early this year. Six fraternities and one sorority have joined the eight-week Greek House Recycling pilot program in an effort to reduce waste and promote environmental awareness in Penn's Greek houses.

Brett Rendina roomed with golfing buddy Mike Blodgett freshman year. Ever since, Rendina's career has gone down a seemingly opposite path. While Blodgett made an impact from his debut season onward - ultimately becoming Penn's first individual Ivy League champion last spring - Rendina competed in just two events combined during his first two seasons.

It's time to talk title scenarios. March Madness creeps closer every day and as the only Division I league without a conference tournament, the Ivy League will decide its NCAA Tournament representative in the next few days - as early as Friday but perhaps later if the stars align.

Remember The Odd Couple? If you're like me, then probably not. It was a 1965 Neil Simon play (later a movie, then a TV show) about a neurotic neat freak who moved in with a shameless slob. Hilarity ensued. Every year, many freshmen unwillingly enact their own little "Odd Couple" revival, only it's not so funny for them.

Anyone who's seen a Spike Lee film will tell you that the Emmy award-winning director is not afraid to express his opinions. Lee's appearance as the Social Planning and Events Film Committee's first keynote speaker last night at Irvine Auditorium further demonstrated his outspoken demeanor.
