<p>Is this a joke?</p>

<p>Obviously a joke article.</p>

<p>I just saw it too and was really startled. want to ask the same question! is it a joke?! (although I’m in no position to say) I just don’t really like the change…at all. :(</p>

<p>Folks: It’s the issue of the DP before April 1. The issue also includes stories about the university chaplain resigning suddenly and a conclave being assembled to select a new one (complete with the possibility of white steam coming out of a steam pipe when they do), Amy Gutmann “getting ratchet” and engaging in drunk Twittering, and the math department building being moved piece-by-piece to make it more convenient to Wharton (and being renamed, along with everything else, after Ronald Perelman).</p>

<p>It’s a joke. Duh.</p>

<p>It’s the annual joke issue of The Daily Pennsylvanian. :p</p>
