Shawn Srolovitz | Breaking the mold of mutual exclusivity

By Shawn Srolovitz · Jan. 30, 2017

The notion of mutual exclusivity in your education – that your studies either have to be an inch deep and a mile wide or an inch wide and a mile deep – should not exist at Penn. The width of your education refers to the range of disciplines that you study, while the depth emphasizes how much you choose to specialize.

Cameron Dichter | Light rather than heat

By Cameron Dichter · Jan. 29, 2017

At The Daily Pennsylvanian’s Opinion Section we have a cardinal rule: Don’t feed the trolls! This is because — as is true in all online forums — divisive opinions tend to generate callous responses and replying to volatile comments usually just fuels the flame.

James Lee | Madness in method

By James Lee · Jan. 29, 2017

Isabel Kim | Going ghost

By Isabel Kim · Jan. 25, 2017

Today’s column is a love letter to avoidance. Today, we are here to talk about “ghosting.” To quote Google, ghosting is “the practice of ending a personal relationship with someone by suddenly and without explanation withdrawing from all communication.” I would like to note that this definition refers not just to romantic relationships, but all personal relationships, and that the definition could lend itself to mutual detachment.

Joe Tharakan | Chasing success

By Joe Tharakan · Jan. 23, 2017

For the last month, whenever someone has asked me, “What are you up to?” I’ve always given them the same reply: “I’m studying for the MCAT.” God only knows how many conversations I’ve defaulted to that lazy small talk. Sitting for the MCAT is a notable event that many students study several months for.
