Fling.
But also, this stuff.
Springfest
Who? SPEC
When & Where? Wynn Commons, Monday 6-7:30PM
Why? Um, hello! The theme is Throwback to the 90s! Don’t miss Dance Dance Revolution, inflatable Twister, 90s trivia, a photo booth, and the chance to win 2 floor passes for the Fling concert.
There’s no better cure for an ugly Tuesday than our one true love, Her Highness Amy G, popping up in the news. Asked about Penn’s responsibilities concerning West Philadelphia, our fearless president states in Zócalo that she’s “worked productively in partnership with our neighbors to strengthen the educational, cultural, and economic fabric of West Philadelphia and the greater Philadelphia region.” Discussing everything from philanthropy to Penn Park, Amy reminds us that our responsibility to Philly, and the world at large, is to continue using our resources to make good. Swoon.
The Honorable Judge Marjorie Rendell: she’s a federal judge on the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, she’s a Penn grad, and she’s coming to Civic House tomorrow afternoon as part of the Penn Women in Leadership Series to speak about her experiences in law and philanthropy. Be sure to RSVP if you plan to attend and submit any questions you hope to have answered. More details after the jump!
Now, we know that you’re all very smart,
so you should plan each day from its start.
You ask, “What events are there this week?”
And we respond, “Oh-so-many, eek!”
And– Oh, goodness!– this limerick’s a fart.
The Bachelorette’s Ashley Hebert
Who: Delta Delta Delta
When and where: Tuesday, 5:30-7 p.m.; Hall of Flags
Why: Perennial UTB favorite Ashley Hebert will be coming to Houston Hall on Tuesday to share her insights with the Penn community. For any aspiring dental student-cum-public figure-ish (?), this is an event that you simply cannot miss! Also: free Chili’s appetizers. Blooming onions, people. Blooming. Onions. Tickets are $5 and will benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, which is awesome.
Now that everyone’s totally into voting and getting involved in the community and stuff, it seems like a pretty good time to invest in a pair of TOMS Shoes. Anti-Poverty Action Week 2010 is coming up, and Civic House is kicking it off on November 14th with the TOMS Shoes “Style Your Sole” event, where you can order a pair of white TOMS shoes and decorate them while learning about social entrepreneurship and social impact organizations.
