Why do we jam pack the year’s allotted fun into one weekend when it never turns out to be the best one?
Despite all of the huffing and puffing about hook-up culture, casual sex isn’t the problem. The problem is communication — or rather, lack thereof. It’s not time that we stop hooking up, but it is time to stop hooking up without telling our partners what we want.
PennDems made a strong emotional plea for what they called “sensible and meaningful gun control legislation.” That is why I was so disappointed to see the same old, tired suggestions: ban “military-style” weapons and restrict magazine size.

I don’t understand why it’s laughable that girls want to hang out with a bunch of other girls and drink and not get dressed up and just chill. That sounds a lot like bro culture to me, but no one writes articles blaming bros for declining marriage rates.
The great thing about an all-you-can-eat franchise is that seconds are an option if you want them. But not many people seem to see it that way. Every day, I see entire plates of food tossed into the green compost bags at the residential dining halls.

Penn Democrats asks the Penn community to join us in demanding sensible and meaningful gun control legislation.
By opting out of the ObamaCare Medicare Expansion, the entire country — not only the state — loses.
Tyga won’t be the only one promoting sexism on Friday. While there has been much furor over Tyga’s lyrics, certain groups at Penn will be propagating a more ubiquitous and insidious form of sexism over Fling: our fraternities.
I wondered if food trucks were missing out on the large customer segment that wanted healthy meals. My survey data suggested that healthy food trucks weren’t doing enough to reach these people and fight the stereotype surrounding food trucks in general. However, if they could solve this disconnect, a mutually beneficial outcome could be achieved.

As Patton writes, “For most of you, the cornerstone of your future and happiness will be inextricably linked to the man you marry, and you will never again have this concentration of men who are worthy of you.” For most of you. This seemingly benign qualifier is the piece’s most damning phrase, revealing a worldview that excludes not only some individuals but any alternatives to what people like Patton consider happy partnerships and happy futures.
As a TA, I’ve seen many ways students cheat the system.
Is Fling more about the music or coming together as a school? As far as I know, this is the first time students are actively and publicly organizing themselves to separate the concert from Fling.
Forget about finding your intellectual equal or marrying him before you graduate. Here’s what you really need to know that Susan Patton isn’t telling you: empirically speaking, if you graduate without a ring on your finger, you are in great company.

Pulitzer’s tale is a refreshing success story that finds promise in our daily mistakes — one of hers landed her a company with net sales over $100 million just this past year.
To huff and puff every time a woman is noted for both her beauty as well as her brains only reinforces the double standard females face in reaching positions of power. So what if someone says she’s pretty? Get over it.
Others have criticized Patton for being anti-feminist, but I find her argument empowering. What’s anti-feminist about telling a woman to find a man “worthy” of her intelligence?
In yesterday’s edition of The Daily Pennsylvanian, the DP provided campus with suggestions on how the Social Planning and Events Committee should incorporate student input into what artists, speakers and events are brought to campus. The suggestions they provided are really good. So good, in fact, that they are already in place.
