<p>If I have a friend come visit me at Penn, are they allowed to stay in the dorms in a sleeping bag or something? And can they come to classes with me?</p>
<p>You can have your friends stay wherever you want. They can go to classes but you are probably better off doing so in the larger lectures -- taking extra people to smaller seminars or language classes, for instance, might raise some eyebrows and may not be condoned by the professor/teacher.</p>
<p>As long as they aren't visiting during fling, just have the person come with an ID and you'll have no problems bringing them almost anywhere. During Fling, things become a bit tougher.</p>
<p>The above is true.</p>
<p>to answer the inevitable question, there is a fee for non-penn students to enter the quad during fling, and a cap on the number of non-penn students allowed to attend fling events in the quad.</p>
<p>other than this, friends are generally welcome anytime in the dorms, but make sure that the professors of any smaller classes you take are okay with visitors before you bring a friend along. in the larger classes, nobody really cares.</p>
<p>what is "Fling?"</p>
<p>Thanks everyone. That's just fan-freaking-tastic. It doesn't even matter if the visitor is of the opposite sex (gasp!)?</p>
<p>Nope. Not at all.</p>
<p>scandalous. It's almost as if we're... adults</p>
<p>For fling, you have to register them a week before even. Spring Fling is a once-a -year drunkathon.</p>
<p>I think there might be a cap on how many people visit you at a time, and there is a limit to how long people can visit you for. For example, if you have your girlfriend basically living there, they might have a problem</p>
<p>It's even okay if the guest is Tucker Max.</p>
<p>oh man i was waiting for that one, i was at SAM that day</p>
<p>You can have guests of the opposite sex, no problem :D Noooo problem at all :P</p>
<p>Man that Tucker Max thing was pretty hilarious though</p>
