This eye-catching sign is posted throughout the fine arts building. And it works — we’ve witnessed people stopping and reading the posters. We’re just glad the guys who work in the windowless basement of Addams can find the fun in it all!

“How To Avoid Flyers On Locust Walk,” by Bianca Lauría.
While you were holed up in Van Pelt with midterm fever, the students in David Comberg’s Information Design class (FNAR 337) have spent the past few weeks toiling away on their most recent projects. The assignment? Create an information graphic depicting any aspect of Penn life, from the most mundane activity to the hilarious and/or humiliating. Starting tomorrow, UTB will be posting the final projects as part of a collaboration with FNAR 337. Throughout this week, be sure to watch out for posts accompanied by the “How To Survive At Penn” logo (below, created by class T.A. Nirav Sanghani). We hope you’ll find the projects informative…or at the very least, pretty to look at.
FNAR, we must admit that of all the majors at Penn, you’re the one we have a not-so-secret crush on — which is why we’re totally planning on stopping by tonight’s opening reception for this year’s thesis exhibition. The reception will take place at Charles Addams Fine Arts Gallery from 5 to 7 p.m., perfectly timed for swinging by after a long day of class (and still making it to the Street writers’ meeting, if you’re so inclined). It’s open to the public and refreshments will be served. Now where did we leave that pretentious beret we wanted to wear…
Today’s 34th Street features illustrations by students taking Digital Design Foundations with David Comberg this semester. Their assignment was to represent a figure with a notorious reputation. Check out the graphics on the back page of the magazine, or by viewing the slideshow we put together:
Here at UTB, we’ve been known to stalk Addams from time to time, which is why we’re so excited to report the following: that awkward entrance walkway of wooden planks is no more! The walkway remains in place on 36th Street, where construction for the Annenberg Public Policy Center is underway, but now you can enter Addams by approaching from the west side of the building and walking on solid ground the whole time. Guess all the MFA’s will have to get together and vote on a new “Official Spot To Smoke And Look Anguished.”
