The days of students sending files to themselves and waiting in line for computers at Van Pelt may finally be over. Information Systems and Computing is working on configuring a wireless network that would allow students to print directly from their personal computers to Penn-networked printers in libraries and academic buildings.

Let's talk about sex, baby. At least, Trojan Condoms thinks Penn students should. Trojan, which just released its 2008 Sexual Health Report Card, placed Penn 21st out of 129 schools surveyed about the availability of "sexual health resources and information to their students," according to the study pamphlet.

I often wonder about the point of many things: "recommended" books for class, bug-eye sunglasses, the food court at 34th and Walnut streets. But my recent ponderings have been about the Benjamin Franklin Scholars program. The majority of BFS students are mysteriously selected as incoming freshmen and must take at least one Benjamin Franklin seminar per year to graduate with recognition as a scholar.

The Quakers' trainers are being kept busy this week. Two key players - cornerback Tyson Maugle and running back Bradford Blackmon - suffered injuries in Saturday's win over Dartmouth. As reported in yesterday's DP, Maugle broke his nose in three places. According to coach Al Bagnoli, he underwent "a procedure" today and is doubtful for this weekend's game at Georgetown.

Having spent the past 20 years in lockstep, defensive backs Josh and Nate Powers have one cardinal rule: Never pursue the same woman. Perhaps that's because, as twins, they've already demonstrated the mischief they can cause when girls can't tell them apart.

A robot that reconstructs itself after exploding. It sounds like an unstoppable cyborg played by a certain state governor, but the ckBot has a long way to go before it can come close to exterminating the human race. The ckBot is the brainchild of Mechanical Engineering professor Mark Yim and Computer Science professor C.

Some schools have been left in the lurch after Wachovia's announcement last week that it would freeze $9.3 billion in funds for nearly 1,000 colleges and universities across the country, but Penn will not be one of them. Wachovia had been managing a short-term cash fund for the management firm Commonfund, but froze the account last week after resigning its position as a trustee.

Ambassador Martine Letts shared a vision for a more globally significant Australia during a visit to Huntsman Hall yesterday as part of the 2008 International Relations Speaker Series, "Think Tanks, Civil Society, and Public Policy."

The sentencing of former Economics professor Rafael Robb, which was scheduled for yesterday, was postponed out of defense concerns that a vigil for his dead wife would affect the hearing.

The Penn men soccer team's undefeated run came to an end to night, as the Quakers lost to Lehigh, 2-1, on a golden goal in the 109th minute. The Mountain Hawks struck first off a corner five minutes before halftime. In the second, the Quakers came out gunning, with Omid Shokofandeh burying a cross in the 50th minute to even it up.

While most of the campus is focusing on the upcoming presidential election, the College Republicans and the Penn Democrats are also focusing on another race - one in which most Penn students will not be able to vote. U.S. Congressman Patrick Murphy (D-Pa.

Navigating Penn InTouch and registering for classes might be smoother sailing next year. A revamped Penn InTouch Web site is scheduled for a June 2009 release and will resemble the new Course Search tool, which was rolled out to students last spring, in its interface.

Perhaps the two most important pieces of advice freshmen receive are to avoid dating people in their hall and to avoid citing Wikipedia in a paper for class. While the first is questionable, the second makes sense most of the time. After all, when the Benjamin Franklin statue in front of College Hall was renamed the "Liora Pollick Statue" on Penn's Wikipedia page, no one noticed for two months.
