<p>is there a place on the web site where there is a list of student activiites, courses/professors, research going on, new funding for stuff, etc? esp. to put in my “why penn essay”</p>
<p>The Penn website would be a good place to start.</p>
<p>Nah, I think the University of Florida's website has far more on any activities/courses at Penn.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ufl.edu/%5B/url%5D">www.ufl.edu/</a> - try there</p>
<p>NO Reactionary, that is the wrong site. Try this one twinkletoes23 (lol your name): <a href="http://www.psu.edu/%5B/url%5D">http://www.psu.edu/</a></p>
<p>yeah, the link that pyar posted is really good. I used it for my why penn essay and it is really informative. I had my neighbors (Penn alums) read my essay and both were impressed.</p>
<p>Yeah I used Pyar's website too..just talk about the atmosphere at State College...</p>
<p>Dude did you tour it? you should get a feel for the very small details that make it so different. I luckily payed attention. one big detail : SQUIRRELS. CRAP LOADS of squirrels in I think it was Locust Walk... am i right about this?</p>
<p>No, it was lions and the name is Happy Valley. You got it confused.</p>
<p>I feel sorry for whoever falls for that. Imagine the ****ed off admission officers...</p>
<p>Anyway, I have to agree with the people who suggested touring the school. I don't think pictures do the campus justice because the buildings are so beautiful. I had so much fun photographing everything...including the squirrels :) And talking to the people who attend it really help.</p>
<p>I talked about squirrels and my home (craploads of squirrels here too. :().</p>
<p>I didnt pay much attention to squirrels, but Locust walk was amazing. It was like its own world, a sanctuary.</p>
<p>^Hey I used those words in my essay lol (well sanctuary. A serene place. But at the same time a place of liveliness.).</p>
<p>great minds think alike. so if any adcom is reading this...me and gyro should get in haha if only...if only it worked like that</p>
<p>oh my goodness. you people are weird.</p>
<p>lol (10 char)</p>
<p>If you have to ask you'll never know</p>
<p>why weird? we're dead serious. psu is a great site to start researching the amazing school ur trying to get into. </p>
<p>i suggest u talk abt squirrels as well - they seem to have friendly relations with the adcoms and might actually put in a good word for ya. gluck twinkletoes!</p>
<p>wait, you guys are comparing PSU to Penn? Is that it? squirrels annoy the crapola out of me. they talk too much. pshaw</p>
<p>Hahahahah.</p>
<p>What on earth are you talking about Minor6th? Are you stupid or something? No one tried to compare PSU to Penn, we just gave a site that would have information on activities at Penn in order to help twinklytwankly.</p>
<p>Then we mentioned that talking about squirrels in the essay will also help, since twinkleface's post was about the essay.</p>
