<p>Yes! Let’s get this to 101. We must have at least 200 reasons, so let’s show our school spirit by at least getting to 101. I’ll try to think of a few more</p>
<p>since you all seem to really want to add to the list, here are a couple to choose from:</p>
<p>the gargoyles at the quad (over 150 of them, many different styles)
can’t link to the blog but some one who is in the know characterizes them as
</p>
<p>the Red and the Blue (very decent school colors, nothing embarassing like, say, the Halloween tones of black and orange…)</p>
<p>In addition to Wharton, Nursing, College, etc. what about Annenberg School of Communication, the Law and Medical Schools, the Dental School and the Veterinary School? – all world class.</p>
<p>What’s “Big-5 and Palestra”?</p>
<p>Big 5 is a basketball thing. Penn, Nova, St. Joes, Temple, and LaSalle play eachother every year. I’d say these games are bigger for Penn than any Ivy League game except against Princeton historically.</p>
<p>How is Management 100 a reason to go to Penn??? Most of my friends strongly disliked it.</p>
<p>A few things to add:
Top BE program
New Nano building on the way
First computer (ENIAC)
Alcohol Amnesty Policy</p>
