Penn Student Rushes, Learns Nothing In Particular

Being the number one party school isn't all fun and (drinking) games. As an IVY LEAGUE INSTITUTION it is just inconceivable that Penn students want to party or have fun, or you know, just live their lives without everyone coming along and writing a derogatory thinkpiece. Normally, this job is left to random outsiders to explain how and why we "difmo" or our overwhelming obsession with status. Luckily this time, we were analyzed by one of our own – how enlightening!

Unfortunately, the writer falls into the trap as all previous exposés. Did you know that Penn girls wear Canada Goose, or that rush is stressful? Maybe you couldn't tell that most PNMs are white (maybe this writer forgot about the MGC) or that being part of an organization, any organization on Penn's campus is going to cost money? Or that when joining any group, anywhere, you need to be likeable? Or that demeaning the women who go through this "fake process" comes off as being just as close-minded? In case you didn't know any of this, you might learn something. But for the rest of us, it just reads as another off-base attack based on a skewed, preconceived notion of how Penn students should conduct their lives.
