On a Sunday afternoon last month, members of The Vagina Monologues sat down for a group arts and crafts project. The assignment? Represent the Penn vagina. At the 2009 performance, those posters will be on display for the audience. The designs turned out to be "completely different" from one another, according to College senior Rachel Garber, the producer of the play at Penn.

Just think of Rob Belcore as the Scottie Pippen to Zack Rosen's Michael Jordan. That is, if your Scottie was a slightly scruffy college freshman with a penchant for video games, and your Michael is his six-foot, carrot-top roommate from North Jersey. Yes, the analogy isn't a perfect fit for Belcore and the red-headed Rosen.

There are many valid reasons for students to climb the stairs in the high rises: It's often quicker if they live on the first three floors; enough trips up could replace 10 minutes on the Stair Stepper; it's proper etiquette so those living on the 24th floor can get home a minute or two faster.

The spirit of Juicy Campus, the infamous online gossip site that shut down last Thursday, lives on.

Two students have been hospitalized with meningitis, according to a University-wide e-mail sent out Thursday afternoon. One student is in stable treatment and is being treated. The other student is in critical condition.

In a conference where dominant big men are scarce and big-time athletes are scarcer, consistent jump-shooting becomes all but a necessity. But it's no secret that Penn has been deficient from the perimeter over the past two seasons, and this year's Ivy League campaign has started no differently.

The total number of crimes in the Penn Patrol Zone in January 2009 is the same as this month in 2008. Although the total number stayed fixed at 60, crimes against people increased from five to eight and crimes against property decreased from 55 to 52, according to the Division of Public Safety.

Although most students will recognize her as the first female U.S. Secretary of State or the highest ranking woman in U.S. government at the time, former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright has not let her past position define her. Given her long history of dedication to international affairs, the Social Planning and Events Committee Connaissance subcommittee chose Albright as this spring's keynote speaker.

It was just another day in outfielder Gary Johnson's rollercoaster journey to Major League Baseball. Now an MBA candidate at Wharton, Johnson had nothing to hide when a man came to his AAA Salt Lake City clubhouse for random drug testing. He knew something was up, though, after he saw one of his teammates use the dugout bathroom instead of showing up for the test.

The Mexican cuisine at Penn has no borders. The opening of Chipotle last month added to the variety of Mexican restaurants scattered around campus to satiate a spicy palate.

If you're a junior or senior currently scrambling for a job, you might as well pack up your bags right now and see what the economy looks like on Mars. But if you're an inmate in the Philadelphia Prison System scheduled for release in the next few months, you may actually be in luck.

I'll get it out there: I'm a hypocrite. I'm against income taxes but pay them. I'm in favor of the death penalty but wouldn't want to get it myself. I'm a proponent of freedom of speech but occasionally censor my Facebook wall. And I'm pro-guns despite never firing or even holding one.

Tonight is the first of Mayor Michael Nutter's budget workshops, run in collaboration with Penn Project for Civic Engagement to help get public input on budget decisions. All Philadelphia residents are invited to attend. Nutter announced the Workshops Jan.
