PennSleeps Helps Us Snag Some Zs

Though Penn students may be the best when it comes to partying and feeling insecure, we're not so great at getting those precious hours of REM sleep. That's where PennSleeps, a Facebook page that shares articles about the importance of our beauty rest, comes in. 

We appreciate the page's efforts of course, but we're a bit confused – why take the time to like their page when we could be sleeping? Isn't this a fundamental flaw in the project? That one click on the like button really cuts into our study time. 

Even the name PennSleeps, with its mysterious missing space between the two words, captures the urgency in the typical day of a Penn student – if we can't even hang out with friends without bringing our laptops along, how would the admins of PennSleeps have the time to separate the words 'Penn' and 'sleeps?' As PennSleeps reminds us, we need to make time to stay healthy before we lose track of what's important to us – like the space between two words.
