Still haven’t gotten your t-shirt designing fix? Let loose that creative juice for a second round of graphic contests, this time for Fling. This competition actually looks pretty awesome, as in you can win $100 and two floor passes for the concert. They apparently prefer “sweet, flashy designs;” just please don’t use the colors on their flyer or our eyes may bleed. Still not convinced to enter? Just think- you’ll have your design puked on worn by the entire school! Talk about fast track to fame!
Submissions are due by February 22 to springfling@specevents.net in .tiff, .jpeg or 300+ dpi format (we know, you had your hearts set on .gif, but it’ll be okay). Designs also can’t reference drugs or drinking, because we’re classy.

“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.
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:
Getting into Penn’s wine-tasting preceptorial is much harder than getting into Penn itself, or, what’s more, any of the Ivies: we just got an e-mail that we were waitlisted :( The e-mail reads:
You have been currently placed on the waitlist of the Wine Preceptorial. Some 870 students applied for 20 spots. But, there is still a fairly good chance you may be able to get in.
Um, we don’t know what class you took to fulfill your quantitative data analysis requirement, but a waitlist of 850 does not add up to a “fairly good chance.” Your chances of getting into the wine-tasting preceptorial are roughly the same as your chances of getting hired at Google any time soon. However, if you’re still dying to wax pretentious about wine, Philo offers a six-week wine-tasting course of its own for $140; details are here.
