There are 11 Penn freshmen who think I'm stalking them. And I'll be honest - I kind of am. Over the summer, I sent each of them no fewer than 12 e-mails and then called all the ones who didn't respond. Since school started, I've contacted them about five times each and even hung around their dorms during New Student Orientation.

More than modest To the Editor: I was disappointed to see you call President Amy Gutmann's donation to the University for financial aid "modest" yesterday ("Gutmann chips in for student aid, DP, 11/14/06). While it is, indeed, less than George Weiss gave to the University, it is still notable and is a good percentage of Gutmann's income.
