Penn or Brown? NOT a chances thread

^ I’m at the campus a fair amount also, but I don’t remember ever seeing YOU there. :p

Seriously, though–that’s an unfortunate incident with a few Penn students, but it’s unfair to paint all 9600 with a broad brush stroke of immaturity. I’m sure there are some of those types at every school. Plus, you don’t know what the relationship may have been between the kids making fun and the guide (friends, etc.). In any event, the 3 students in your writing group may typify the school more than the others.

Plus, I don’t know what you mean by “the campus doesn’t give off an academic vibe”. There is more academic research occurring at Penn than at all but a handful of other schools. You can’t get much more academic than that. If you mean that Penn isn’t quiet and monastic, and has a healthy social life and lots of activities, well then, you’re right.
