We’ll Just Be At Copa And Smokes

We’ve been getting lots of tips pointing us to a new blog by Penn students, Bar for the Course, in which two senior girls document their adventures at as many Philly bars as possible before graduation.

We Show You How To Survive At Penn: A Series

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.
