Penn Entrepreneur Seeks Sweet, Sweet Revenge

The delivery may be a bit self-righteous, but the argument itself is valid: We do not drop a cool $60K a year to not get into courses we need for our major. Much respect for all those seniors who vow to confront the lady in the red pantsuit herself if they don't get a spot in that Wharton core class they need to graduate.
Well, one ambitious Penn entrepreneur took the matter into her own hands by creating Penn Course Monkey, a site that texts you when a course opens up. All you have to do is give your email address, and--voilà--Penn InTouch has been foiled!
The site is up but not officially running yet, so feel free to continue sending angst-ridden emails to your advisors begging to get into the writing seminar you neglected to take as a freshman.
