The Daily Pennsylvanian is totally independent of the university. For
serious. If anything they get a big kick out of doing the opposite of
what the administration would like them to do. (Anybody remember the
DP printing over and over again the pics of the students doing it up
against the high rise window?)

Penn Dems, like the Penn Republicans, is full of kids wanting to get
jobs in politics. They'll all be DC a month after graduation. Not
exactly future Philadelphia overlords.
