Penn officials have wanted to collaborate with University City High School for some time now, but many community members who attended a public forum last night say Penn's help is not welcome. At the forum, held to share plans with the community about renovations, Philadelphia School District leaders officially said they have been in discussion with Penn and Drexel for the past two years about the possibility of a partnership with University City High once it is renovated.

Jason Pinsky left no doubt about the importance of yesterday's No. 1 singles match against Saint John's Artem Vlasenko. He drove the message home on the very first point. A high-arcing Pinsky forehand sailed just a little longer than desired. Vlasenko let the ball bounce without a return, signaling that the ball landed out.

They've been together for two years, but they still can't hold hands in public. Kate, a College sophomore, began dating Dan, a University of Charleston sophomore, while still in high school. Still together, their biggest relationship issue isn't that they are long distance - it's that they are a secret.

From Facebook groups to YouTube videos, technology has undoubtedly changed the way presidential campaigns communicate. But new modes of communication aren't exclusive to campaigns - political groups on Penn's campus, and at other schools as well, have also revolutionized their efforts.

In a contest riddled with walks, balks, hit batters and wild pitches, the only thing Penn's hurlers couldn't tally was a win. Lafayette rallied from 5-1 down to upend the Quakers 6-5 at Meiklejohn Stadium, eliminating the Red and Blue from the eight-team Liberty Bell Classic.

Geno's Steaks owner Joey Vento never thought eight words would cause such a fuss. But the ruckus, raised over a sign at his ordering window that reads, "This is America. When ordering, please speak English," has finally ended. Thirty-one months after Vento first put the sign up, and nearly two years after the City of Philadelphia filed a "complaint of bias" against him because of it, Philadelphia's Commission for Human Relations ruled that the sign is not discriminatory.

So far, presidential candidates from both the Democratic and Republican parties have debated issues ranging from the war in Iraq to the economy. But these aren't the only issues facing the future president - one group argues that scientific issues, such as global warming and science and math education, should also be discussed.

The Democratic presidential primary isn't the only highly contested election this spring - more students than ever are running for positions in next year's student government. A total of 73 students are competing for 83 positions, according to Colleen Donovan, the vice chair for elections for the Nominations and Elections Committee, which is in charge of the elections process.

When Lurch the butler answers the door at the home of The Addams Family, it is College Hall that you see. Cartoonist and Penn alumnus Charles Addams is said to have used College Hall as his inspiration for the mansion of the Addams Family. And just as College Hall served as the home for the Addams family, it also serves as a home base for School of Arts and Sciences Dean Rebecca Bushnell.

If you were one of the 3.3 million people who watched the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament online, you may have seen a familiar face at halftime. Columbia men's basketball coach Joe Jones (along with New York TV personality Jason Horowitz and St. John's coach Norm Roberts) was featured on all the halftime programming of NCAA March Madness On Demand at CBSSports.

When he was 13 years old, David Helfenbein fell head-over-heels in love - political love, that is - with Hillary Clinton. It all began on a fateful day eight years ago when Clinton came to speak at the now-College senior's middle school in Chappaqua, New York.

The college gossip Web site Juicycampus.com is still under attack - but from a new direction. Though most outcry about the site over the past months has focused on its obscene content posted by users, New Jersey authorities are investigating whether the site itself has engaged in wrongdoing.

Last time I checked, the United States didn't have an official language. English may predominate in the Land of the Free, but Spanish, or any other language for that matter, can rightly claim to be just as American. Yet if you stop by Geno's Steaks in South Philly, you might think otherwise.

A male student allegedly followed a College sophomore off the elevator in Rodin College House and attempted to break into her room after she had entered it yesterday afternoon. After a fight with police, he was arrested. The student, whose name police did not release last night, was charged with criminal trespassing, attempted burglary and assault on police, according to Det.

For seven innings, Penn's makeshift pitching operation bent but didn't break, allowing just three runs despite 13 baserunners. But in a madcap eighth inning, the Quakers rickety bullpen finally collapsed. Ironically, Lafayette's three-run rally started with a strikeout.

It was all about the purple fishnets. College sophomore Cameron Clark spent the past few weeks preparing for his debut as Britney Spears last night, and he couldn't have done it without the "proper purple fishnets." In towering black lace-up boots and a pink miniskirt, Clark was just one of the many Penn performers who participated in the second-annual gender-bending drag show last night.

For the Penn men's tennis team, today's match against St. John's marks the last non-conference tune-up before the Princeton match on Saturday. But after losing six of their past seven matches, the Quakers know better than to look past their next opponent. "St.
