Slang at University of Pennsylvania

Hello. I am doing research on the use of slang in Ivy League schools, and wanted to know if anyone could help me out with what slang is used at University of Pennsylvania. I realize that this forum is primarily used for answering questions of potential and incoming students, but I have been unable to find another forum with a sizable community of University of Pennsylvania students, so I hope there are people here who would be able to help me. I am interested in what slang terms are used, their meaning, examples of how they are used, what time periods they were used in, etc. Any kind of information you can provide would be helpful.

It doesn't really help that you're posting in the class '12 forum. Try the other ones since we haven't actually experienced life at Upenn yet. Either that or ask around facebook.

Are you looking for terms that refer to things specific to Penn..like people, places, etc? Or just words that happen to be popular here but could be used anywhere? This is fun though, I'll give you answers once you specify!
