Threat puts Penn on alert
An online post put many Phila. schools on alert LOWELL NEUMANN NICKEY Staff Reporter
At 2:07 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 4, the Division of Public Safety sent out an advisory warning students that a threat of violence has been
made against an unspecified university near Philadelphia, according to the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. The information regarding the threat did not specify a school, the Federal Bureau of Investigation told DPS, but mentioned the date Monday, Oct. 5, 2015 and the time 2 p.m. ET. “This is about spreading the
information that DPS prepares for any and all emergencies, not making students and staff anxious,” Vice President for Public Safety Maureen Rush said. “We don’t take these things lightly and we feel that information is power and we want the Penn community to be aware.” The advisory comes at a time of heightened sensitivity to threats

Peter Tarantelli has cooked for Penn Greek groups since 2009 ELLIE SCHROEDER Deputy News Editor
Peter Tarantelli spends nearly 12 hours a day at Penn’s Greek houses, but he’s not a fraternity brother. Tarantelli is the beloved chef for two of Penn’s Greek houses, Alpha Phi and Sigma Alpha Mu — more commonly known as Sammy — and, more recently, author of the self-published cookbook “Simple to Gourmet Vegan,” which he released last week. When I met Tarantelli, he was clad in jeans and a hoodie, his long hair tied back in an undone man bun. He handed me a copy of his book as well as a plate of vegan blueberry crumbcake with instructions to “nuke for 15 seconds.” As I leafed through his cookbook, I was taken aback at the “normal” foods he’s added — mac and cheese, “chicken” parmesan and chocolate fudge brownie cake accompany more typically vegan options, like Indian chickpea broccoli pakora fritters and a bean salad. Dinner for 60 The 41-year-old Buffalo, N.Y., native started cooking in Penn’s Greek system when he moved to Philadelphia in 2009. He has cooked five days a week at Alpha Phi since 2009 and was hired by Sammy to cook twice a week beginning this semester. In addition, he worked at Sigma Alpha Epsilon for a year and had a five-year stint cooking for APES from 2010 to 2015.

Dartmouth senior quarterback Dalyn Williams ran roughshod over the Quaker defense on saturday, completing 22 of 24 passes for 328 yards. FOLLOW US @DAILYPENN FOR THE LATEST UPDATES
After a strong showing against Villanova last week, it appears the Penn football team that took down the nation’s fourth-ranked team has not yet returned to campus. Penn fell, 41-20, to Dartmouth on Saturday in its home and Ivy League opener. The 41 points allowed to the Big Green (3-0, 1-0 Ivy) were the most conceded by the Quakers (1-2, 0-1) to Dartmouth since 1922, and the loss marked the first time the Red and Blue have lost back-to-back games to the Big Green since 199697. Dalyn and Victor Williams — Dartmouth’s quarterback and wide receiver tandem — dominated Penn, as Dalyn Williams was responsible for all six of the Big Green’s touchdowns. He threw for 328 yards on 22-for-24 passing, throwing two touchdowns apiece to Victor Williams and Houston Brown. Dalyn Williams also accrued 73 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns, while Victor Williams finished with 12 receptions for 213 yards. Despite falling behind early, Penn attempted to establish the run
throughout the first half, with 15 rushing attempts that were mostly unsuccessful after sophomore running back Tre Solomon opened action with a seven-yard carry. Coach Ray Priore thought junior quarterback Alek Torgersen might have been making incorrect reads in the readoption scheme, which could have contributed to the lack of success on the ground. Torgersen — who sustained an injury late in the second quarter — finished the half 7-for-10 for 29 yards and had trouble with accuracy and finding the open man. He added 22 yards and a touchdown running the football before senior backup quarterback Andrew Lisa took over the duties behind center in the second half. "[Torgersen] took a shot on one of those plays at the end of the first half, didn’t seem right,” Priore said. “So he went back into the locker room and [did not return] because of precautionary reasons. The Red and Blue looked for sophomore wide receiver Justin Watson early and often, and he finished with eight catches for 66 yards and a late touchdown. Watson has scored in all three games this season. It was a rough game for the Penn SEE FOOTBALL PAGE 11

AlunaGeorge brings electronic hits to Skimmerfest Due to rain, duo performed for a smaller audience ERIN FARRELL Contributing Reporter
With a notorious history defined by centuries-old Ivy League rivalries, a fraternity motorcade, a Louis Armstrong concert and a student riot, it’s no wonder Skimmerfest has drawn such a crowd since the reboot of the old tradition. Though suspended for 52 years by the University, the festival was re-instated four years ago to serve as a fall equivalent of Spring Fling. Even in the few years since its renewal, the event, complete with free food and live music, has undergone significant changes thanks to the collaborative efforts of the Class Boards, Social Planning and Events Committee, the Undergraduate Assembly,
Penn Traditions and Penn Athletics. Unlike past years where entertainment like rock walls, hot air balloons and other activities were the main attractions, this year the main event was a concert. “We moved away from carnival attractions this year. We found that people are there mainly for the food trucks, the giveaways and the talent,” College senior and Skimmerfest Executive Board member Sabina Spigner said. The main draw this year centered on British electronic duo AlunaGeorge in the midst of their latest tour, as well as their opener, the electronic Penn student group Blind Prism. “We sent out a poll asking who people would want to see on campus. We were so lucky to get [AlunaGeorge] for as cheap as we did because [they’re on an] American tour. And, as an
opener, Blind Prism fit that same vibe,” College senior and Skimmerfest Executive Board member Roshni Amin said. Despite the changes in content, the main objective of Skimmerfest has remained constant. “Our goal this year, as with every year, really, is to just create that Penn hype and that school spirit,” Nursing senior and Skimmerfest Executive Board member Ally Lutfi said. “We really want to draw people to the football game against Dartmouth and hopefully also to Skimmerfest.” In spite of the inclement weather, the free event went on as planned in Houston Hall rather than Penn Park after Penn football’s loss to Dartmouth. The move to a smaller, indoor venue limited the number of students able to see AlunaGeorge to a lucky 500 who filled the Hall

of Flags for the concert. AlunaGeorge played songs from the set of their ongoing tour, including
well-k nown songs “W hite Noise” and “You Know You Like It.”
“That’s the kind of music I love, and she killed it, even in a smaller venue,” College freshman Annie Batsaikhan said. For those unable to see the main concert, there was still abundant food from the three planned food trucks: Mr. Softee ice cream, Buttercream Cupcake Truck and Mac Mart mac and cheese, all handed out to the hundreds who filled Houston Hall, but could not get into the concert. In addition to free food, various free Penn gear in the form of tshirts, tank tops and drawstring bags was available to those patient enough to stand the lines. In spite of the unfortunate weather, Skimmerfest still managed to meet student expectations. “Like any other college student, I’m really just all about the free food and Penn T-shirts,” College freshman Max Abrams said.
Penn CASE looks to prevent consumer fraud through education
Leaders of new club to inform Penn and Phila. SOPHIA LEPORTE Contributing Reporter
Consumer fraud is an issue most Penn students don’t think about, but according to a new club, maybe they should. A new organization on campus, Penn Consumer Assistance Support and Education, is hoping to help out students and the larger community by educating them on how to prevent and deal with consumer fraud. CASE president and founder College sophomore Christopher D’Urso created the organization to educate the community about the little-addressed subject of consumer advocacy. “I recognized that there was a need ... to create some sort of organization that would help educate Penn students and Philly residents

about consumer fraud and how to protect themselves against those issues,” D’Urso said. College senior and Penn CASE Executive Vice President Aidan
McConnell also believes that Penn students should be more aware of consumer issues. “Penn CASE’s mission and objective is basically to get the general
infrastructure of consumer awareness and consumer protection to be something that Penn students actually care about,” he said. D’Urso sees the club as having
three different departments: one that focuses on students and issues at Penn, one on the larger Philadelphia community and one that handles communication. The club is currently seeking new members. As far as outreach to Penn students is concerned, D’Urso sees a lot of ways that Penn CASE can help students become savvier consumers. “There’s a lot of issues that [Penn students] face, like if you want to live off-campus, what are your rights and resources as a tenant?” D’Urso said. Penn CASE is also focusing on using Penn students to address consumer safety in Philadelphia and is working with local government to make sure they are addressing the issues in the right way. The organization hopes to help groups that are at high risk of being victims of consumer fraud, like students and senior citizens, by providing the

resources necessary to educate them about the issue. D’Urso, who became interested in consumer advocacy while working as an investigative aide in the Monmouth County Department of Consumer Affairs in New Jersey, said he has not heard about similar groups at other universities. “I think that’s one of the challenges,” he said. “It’s a little bit of unchartered territory.” Those in Penn CASE hope Penn students will be able to combine volunteering with interest in learning about business. “We think this is something that it is really important for Penn students to get involved with because it combines this somewhat businessoriented mindset and economic mindset that a lot of Penn students have with a type of community impact that we don’t really see happening at a lot of universities,” McConnell said.

Junior channels music passion into Sony internship MacKenzie works as entertainment marketing rep HANNAH NOYES Staff Reporter
College junior Hope MacKenzie walks into Union Transfer armed with posters and an industrial-sized roll of tape. She looks around and finds a spot to place the MSMR poster on the wall. She takes a picture of the poster on the wall and explains that she is sending it back to Sony. Half an hour later, Hope is taking a group of “influencers” — a mixture of social media posters, press and fans — backstage to the band’s dressing room. She explains her job to the duo, and groups of girls take pictures with them as they chat with their tour manager.

statement on its public safety site, noting that the identified threat to a Philadelphia school had also been made on social media. Drexel’s statement mentions that the FBI has seen similar social media postings throughout the country this week. Rush pointed out that “near Philadelphia” is a very vague term and that students should go about their days as usual. Students should exercise regular levels of awareness, she said, and report any suspicious activity to DPS. DPS has over 140 closed-circuit television systems, over 550 AlliedBarton officers and 118 Penn Police officers all working to ensure student safety. DPS will be increasing surveillance tomorrow, Rush said. There will be additional
college-targeted campus representative, like those for Uber or Yik Yak. She is responsible for creating awareness and visibility in the Philadelphia region for Sony artists — marketing the Sony brand and all alternative rock bands under Sony labels in various locations in and around Philadelphia. “All of my days are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. in terms of school and work,” MacKenzie said. A member of Chi Omega sorority and Hype dance team, she is involved in a variety of on-campus activities. Any work involving her position at Sony replaces free time left over from schoolwork and extracurricular activities. MacKenzie will spend her time leading up to the MSMR show promoting the band on social media, and putting up posters in the Philadelphia area. She tries to visit specific stores and locations, going to vintage shops and down to South Street in order to target a specific demographic. “Although they seek out college kids, this position is not a college-specific position,”
uniformed presence on and around campus in the form of Penn Police and AlliedBarton officers. There will also be additional staff in the CCTV control room, Rush said. DPS has been in contact with both the Philadelphia Police Department and other college and university security services in the region. Specifically, DPS and Rush have been in touch with First Deputy Commissioner Richard Ross Jr. of the Philadelphia Police Department to ensure the whole city is upping awareness and scope of patrol during the period of time specified by the ATF. Requests for comment from the ATF and FBI were not returned before press time. UA President Jane Meyer sent an email to undergraduate students on Sunday at 11:39 p.m. calling attention to the UPenn Advisory and DPS services.
COURTESY OF HOPE MACKENZIE
College junior Hope Mackenzie employs an arsenal of promotional items in her role as a Sony Music and Entertainment marketing representative.
MacKenzie said. “They didn’t care if the representative went to Penn, Drexel, UArts, USciences. This is a part-time job, really.” The specific program is incredibly well-established — the oldest of its type in the industry, Sony’s program has been around for 53 years.
MacKenzie’s job encompasses many different tasks, from conference calls every other week to note-taking on audience reactions. “They expect a lot,” MacKenzie said of Sony. She treats it as another job and is still getting used to the vigorous schedule.
She explains that Sony tries to target people who can dedicate at least two years to this internship, and they want their ambassadors to get to know their market. This job comes with many benefits: In about two weeks, MacKenzie will attend an allexpenses-paid business trip to the
Sony headquarters to speak with executives. She will receive corporate training and meet the other 70 representatives . Other benefits include free merchandise, guest-list concert tickets that often include a “+1” and the first look at new and upcoming bands. However, this all comes with a large time commitment. “Not only do I have to do all of my responsibilities, but I have to document them in immense detail and create a report at the end of every week showing what I did,” she said. “It’s not a position for someone that wants to fit this in whenever is convenient.” At the end of every show she attends, MacKenzie will often pass out free merchandise — at a recent COIN show, she handed out lighters with the band’s name on them. She will then talk to as many people as she can about the show, then report back to Sony headquarters. “To be honest, this position is really just being a music enthusiast — something that I was already without being paid,” MacKenzie said.

Yes, Americans, on average, cherish certain values, such as liberty, democracy and equality of opportunity, and share many common aspirations — namely, to build a better life for oneself and one’s family. These principles and dreams are indispensable to the American character. They guide our country toward a more perfect union. Americans, though, have many differences, and these dissimilarities are truly what make this country exceptional. What would America be without its multiculturalism? When we look out at the American landscape, we see Catholic churches next to Jewish temples, Chinese restaurants next to French bistros, Latin dance studios next to Jazz clubs. Our country should continue to harness the talents and goodness of people from all over the globe to energize and enrich the American experiment. In order to do this most effectively, Congress must pass comprehensive immigration reform. Immigration reform is about so much more than a debate about what to do on our Southern border.

The first step is to secure the border. Any effort made to address the current and future unauthorized immigrants would be undermined by a porous border. The root cause of illegal immigration is that the economic reality in Mexico and Central America is deplorable. We should continue our efforts to address the economic challenges; however, in the short term, we need a secure border.

work — Tarantelli compared it to cooking “Thanksgiving dinner seven times a week.” On a typical weekday, Tarantelli said he arrives at ShopRite when it opens at 6 a.m. to buy his groceries for the day. He arrives at the Alpha Phi house one to two hours later and lays out breakfast food for the sisters, then begins his preparation for dinner. He leaves Penn’s campus once he finishes serving dinner at both houses, around 6 p.m. Some of his most requested items are coconut rice with mushroom crusted tofu, for the Sammy guys, and chicken parmesan, guacamole and naan for the Alpha Phi girls. His desserts that he makes three times a week for the sisters are also a hit — his vegan chocolate chip banana bread and crispy peanut butter candies are frequently requested. “As much as the girls say they want to eat healthy, they love it when I make treats,” Tarantelli said. Tarantelli uses what he describes as his perfect “food memory” — he remembers what each person likes and doesn’t like — to create menus that the students will love. College sophomore Kalyb Sims said Tarantelli gave the sisters a survey at the beginning of the year asking about what food they liked, adding that he does a great job

catering to everyone’s preferences. Tarantelli is somewhat of a perfectionist — he won’t repeat any menus unless the students request them again, preferring to “creatively challenge” himself, and he won’t put his name on any food unless it’s perfect. Though he said he’s not “above” making any certain food, no matter what students request, he will make it with style — for example, when the sisters want chicken nuggets, he’ll prepare different kinds of homemade sauce. Tarantelli’s cooking encourages some girls to make vegan choices — though all his desserts and many of the dishes he prepares are vegan, he said that he hesitates to label them as such, since people often assume vegan dishes will taste worse, but feels like he has built up enough credibility with the Alpha Phi girls to get them to try whatever he makes. However, he always over-prepares his vegetarian entrees, since they end up being popular even among the non-vegetarians of the group. “I don’t know how much people are going to like tofu, but they love it,” Wharton junior and Sammy brother Ben Gardner said. Cooking Greek Working in Greek houses can sometimes be a crazy experience, Tarantelli noted. At one Penn fraternity he worked at, which he preferred

to leave unnamed, citing “frat boy drama,” Tarantelli constantly found the kitchen where he was expected to work covered in beer and vodka, red solo cups littering the perpetually sticky floors. On another occasion, the same fraternity lost heat for a week and he had to bring a space heater from home, though he said he could still see his breath the whole time he was cooking. Another time, they found a baby bird that had flown into the kitchen and got caught on a sticky glue trap — Tarantelli recalled that one brother wanted to bash it with a pan, but it was able to fly free when Tarnatelli put oil on its feet. Even working at a sorority has had its drama. At one Cornell University sorority where he cooked prior
to coming to Penn, the girls had to walk through the kitchen to get to their rooms, so Tarantelli witnessed his share of sorority sisters in various states of intoxication or wearing the same clothes as the night before traversing through the kitchen in the early hours of the morning. He said that the two Greek houses he works at now are a “godsend” compared to some of the places he used to work. “A zen kind of thing” For Tarantelli, cooking natural food is more than just a profession — it’s what he’s meant to do. He turned to vegan eating and cooking when he was 17, influenced by the punk and alternative scene that he was first introduced to through music. Back
then, he said, being a vegan was much tougher than it is today, with vegan restaurants abounding and stores like Whole Foods selling so many meat and dairy substitutes. After two undergraduate years at the University of North Carolina Greensboro, Tarantelli decided that his passion lay in cooking and moved out to California to attend the Vega Study Center, where he learned a Japanese-based healing diet that is meant to help people with severe illnesses by giving them ultra-clean diets with foods like rice and seaweed. After learning the method and whittling down to 120 pounds, he decided that the diet was a bit too extreme for his liking — “being a vegan is restrictive enough as it is,” he noted. After moving to Ithaca, New York, he landed his first job in the Greek system, cooking for one of Cornell’s sorority houses, before moving on to the Penn Greek system in 2009. “I feel like that’s what I’m best at ... it’s just natural when I’m cooking,” he said. “It’s a zen kind of thing.” Though writing a cookbook seemed like a natural next step for the veteran chef, writing the book turned out to be a lot more difficult than he initially expected. “It was really hard to do a cookbook because I don’t cook with recipes in mind at all,” Tarantelli said, waving his hands as if cooking a meal. He added that figuring out
how to write recipes for his dishes this past summer was an effort in trial-and-error, guessing and checking the recipes that he wrote down. Though cooking is his job, Tarantelli thinks it can play a bigger part in everyone’s lives. “I think it’s important that people cook for themselves,” he said. “I don’t want to say spiritual and sound like a hippie — but that’s what you should be doing; it’s not really natural for someone else to make it. Hundreds of years ago, that’s what your day revolved around. It seems like more of a peaceful existence.” Although being a vegan is Tarantelli’s lifestyle choice, he doesn’t necessarily encourage people to become vegans themselves. Instead, he recommends that people start by getting five vegetables a day into their diet, a guideline that he says is a great first step to eating healthier. Tarantelli left me with a copy of his book, recommending a few recipes I could feasibly try to prepare in my ant-sized high-rise kitchen. Later that evening, I heat up his vegan blueberry crumb cake, and can’t help but swoon at the warm, gooey dessert. Even for an omnivore, it was absolutely heavenly.

Faculty share experiences living with undergrads Shared events lead to close communities JEFFREY CAREYVA Deputy News Editor
Faculty residing in college houses learn to combine family and pets with a setting of noisy college students. Several faculty members living in college houses shared their experiences with The Daily Pennsylvanian. House Dean Frank Pellicone: House Dean Frank Pellicone has lived in Harrison for almost 15 years — “it’s clearly somewhere that I enjoy being,” he said. He lives with his husband, and his rat terrier Elvis, which has been Harrison’s primary canine resident for over six years. Ever since he was the president of the Graduate and Professional Student Senate at Yale University, Pellicone knew he wanted a similar job in academia as a house dean. “For me this is a great combination of being a student advisor, teaching and having access to student life and being able to help,” Pellicone said. Elvis’ presence in Harrison has been marked ever since he was made the house symbol. “I think a vast number of residents really appreciate having a dog in the residence,” Pellicone said. “A lot of people come and tell
me how much they miss their pets.” One former resident and Graduate Associate even made a cake in the shape of Elvis for his birthday several years ago. Elvis is much less happy when students move out: once the majority of residents leave for the summer, little noises bother him that otherwise wouldn’t. But Pellicone is much more used to the constant transitions. “I would be more sad if people never left, but our role is to help people move on with their lives … but it’s always nice when students stop by again and reconnect,” Pellicone said. While Elvis has been a star in the college house, Pellicone’s husband has felt welcome as well, and has frequently been mistaken for Pellicone. “I think it’s harder for spouses to find their place in the house when they aren’t necessarily part of Penn, but my husband has been doing great and has gotten involved with different events here and given talks,” Pellicone said. Pellicone recognizes that for some, the college house won’t be the center of Penn for everyone. “For some people, Harrison will just be the place where they eat and sleep, but there’s a strong core of people for whom this house has become Penn for them, and that’s really rewarding to stay in touch with them,” Pellicone said. “I knew one … former RA who had

Dean of the College and Riepe Faculty Master Dennis DeTurck is known for hosting cookie nights and helping students with math.
recently married another former RA, and two years ago made their son’s middle name ‘Harrison’, and they brought him around to see the campus recently.” Dean Dennis DeTurck: Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences and Riepe Faculty Master Dennis DeTurck has lived in Riepe since 2009. “The point is to build
community ... and to show faculty are human — we’re fun, we have issues too, and sometimes there’s a wall between faculty and students, which is healthy in some situations, but in others we need to let students see faculty as more of a resource than just for class,” DeTurck said. In-house faculty try to introduce students to the academic community and help students make connections. Each faculty member
in Riepe holds food events, from DeTurck’s cookie nights to Sunday brunches by College House Fellow Ralph Rosen’s family. DeTurck’s cat is always a prominent guest to his cookie nights. DeTurck’s last cat passed away in January 2014, but was soon replaced by a stray cat that former Riepe residents found wandering around Hamilton Village. DeTurck held a contest to name the cat, and decided on Bob. Though Bob may be a little hesitant to interact with students, DeTurck is not phased by the weird student behavior he witnesses in the Quad. “I get to hear all sorts of things, that … I find interesting,” DeTurck said. “There are times when it’s bad, but you know when it’s coming like Spring Fling … it’s actually much worse during the summer when you’re not here, and we get high school kids.” “You guys are interesting — it’s not just like I’m the faculty missionary among the natives, I’m gaining something too,” DeTurck said. “I can know my students better when I teach or when I’m acting as the dean.” DeTurck’s neighbors in the Quad have brought him to events he otherwise wouldn’t attend, like Penn Lacrosse games and theatre productions. But overall, his role to students in the house is not like one of a parent — he doesn’t get overly attached.
“I don’t mind seeing you guys move on, and it’s great having new people come in each year who offer something different,” DeTurck said. Faculty Fellow Jamie-Lee Josselyn: Professor Jamie-Lee Josselyn graduated from the College in 2005, and 10 years later is back living on campus. She started teaching writing at Penn in 2010 and moved into Hill in 2014. She moved into her position of faculty fellow with her dog Primo, two cats and her boyfriend of seven years who is not affiliated with the University. “I’m really interested in alternative education … and I think that education starts in the classroom, but the conversations really go a lot deeper in other places like the Kelly Writers House or in a lounge, and I thought I would have something to add,” Josselyn said. One of her pets also couldn’t be more excited to live among hundreds of young adults. “The dog is thriving — Primo loves it. He has 500 new friends who he’s constantly getting excited about,” Josselyn said. Josselyn said the experience of moving back on campus “wasn’t exactly eye-opening for me, but living in the dorms has reminded me about undergraduate life in a way that I had forgotten in the past 10 years — it’s been an education.”
OCR schedule change forces students to reconsider study abroad All non-technical internships moved to fall RUIHONG LIU Staff Reporter
Future on-campus recruiting cycles will begin even earlier for students seeking internships in business, throwing a wrench in some underclassmen’s study abroad plans. On Sept. 22, Career Services and Penn Abroad announced in an email to Wharton sophomores that OCR for internships will begin in the fall starting next year. According to the email, OCR for both technical and nontechnical internships will begin on Oct. 31, 2016, with resume submissions taking place earlier in October. This year, as in past years, only technical internship recruitment is taking place in the fall. Some Wharton sophomores have decided to adjust their study abroad plans in light of the change. Wharton and Engineering sophomore Zoe Zou, who originally wanted to study abroad in Europe, has changed her plans. “I had planned to study abroad in my junior year fall,” Zou said, “However, the fact that some companies start the process earlier this year and OCR in Asia Pacific district [which usually held in the fall] forced me to pushed back my plan.” Wharton sophomore Kenton Hutchison initially hoped to study at a business school outside of Paris. For him, the biggest impact of the OCR change is on term of study. “I would prefer to go abroad in the fall, when most of my friends from other schools at Penn are going,” Hutchison said, mentioning that he will probably go abroad junior spring instead. In order to alleviate students’ concerns, Career Services plans to adopt technological interview methods in order to help with the transition, mentioning that they will “work with and encourage employers to use phone and video interviewing as an alternate means to interview students who are not in the United States.” However, students didn’t find the introduction of new technology reassuring. “I don’t think those would help much,” Zou said, mentioning that the opportunities to network with firm representatives and ask questions face to face during oncampus information sessions is extremely important, especially for Wharton students seeking internships in banking and consulting. Hutchison agreed, adding that although he appreciates Career Services’ effort to introduce technological change, he fears it will be difficult to implement.
“I wonder how many students hoping to go through the OCR process are going to be comfortable doing so remotely. It seems like a significant gamble, especially with fall OCR in its first year,” he said. “I would not feel comfortable trusting an OCR interview to an Internet connection
across the Atlantic.” In the email, Career Services emphasized that the students interested in working for “smaller employers and in areas such as government, communications, education or nonprofits” will not be heavily affected, as companies in those firms usually do not
participate in OCR. Career Services originally intended to change the OCR schedule this academic year. They sent an email to College sophomores last year announcing the new schedule. However, backlash from concerned students led to a reversal of the
decision. For students who are looking for opportunities outside the rigid OCR process, the changes didn’t play a big role in their study abroad decision. Wharton junior Kathleen Zhou, who is currently studying abroad in Lyon, France, said that

the change wouldn’t affect her decision. “[For] both my freshman summer and my sophomore summer, I found internships outside the OCR recruitment process,” Zhou said, adding that she is interested in industries that are not as heavily invested in the OCR process.

She stepped up and broke up a lot of critical plays early on the field. “I think our outside backs did exactly what they needed to do.

DARTMOUTH DOMINATES THE DAY On Saturday, Penn was unable to capitalize on the momentum from last week’s monumental upset over Villanova, falling, 41-20, to a Dartmouth squad that looks poised to make a run at an Ivy title. Here are some of our favorite shots from the game.

There was plenty of reason for Dartmouth football to celebrate on the day, as the Big Green easily defeated Penn.
ILANA WURMAN | SPORTS PHOTO EDITOR
Indicative of the Quakers’ lackluster performance on Saturday, senior wide receiver Christian Stapleton looks to the ground in disgust.
Penn in 104 years. And while it would be easy to question the Quakers after this loss to Dartmouth, Saturday’s performance was more about Dartmouth winning than Penn’s performance. To put the win in context, the Big Green had not won a game at Franklin Field since 1997. They hadn’t won consecutive games against Penn since 1996-97. And they are now off to their first 3-0 start since that same 1997 season, which was the last year — until recently — that Dartmouth truly competed for an Ivy title. When Williams was asked whether it was especially satisfying to come full circle back to Franklin Field and win after a devastating loss two years ago, the senior thought the victory came with mixed emotions. “You bring up the previous game, and I just remember that was a heartbreak so definitely that hurt,” Williams said. “But being able to come back and play a good game, I would say yes to answer your question. … I think we came out, and we executed, and it was very satisfying.” To say Dartmouth executed would be a bit of an understatement. Williams threw just two incompletions the entire game, setting the Big Green’s record for completion percentage in a game at 91.6. While Dalyn contributed 401 yards of total offense with both his arm and his legs, he wasn’t the only standout performer. Senior receiver Victor Williams (no relation) reeled in 12 catches for 213 yards and two touchdowns. Junior receiver Houston Brown also made two beautiful touchdown grabs that helped put Penn down 41-6 before
the end of the third quarter. Thanks to the sheer efficiency of Dartmouth’s offense and the little pushback by Penn’s defense, the Big Green didn’t punt a single time in the game. Watching the Big Green’s offense run a clinic in the first half may have prompted Red and Blue fans to throw toast early and then leave, although it may be more apt to blame that on inexperienced freshmen and the cold, rainy weather. While this was the same Penn defense that held Villanova to just 13 points nine days earlier, it looked much more like the unit that was torched for 42 points by Lehigh and quarterback Nick Shafnisky in its season opener. There will be time in the coming days and weeks to question Penn. With the Quakers’ starting QB injured and a defense that has struggled against dual-threat quarterbacks, the Red and Blue will need to find answers as they try to separate this year’s squad from last season’s disappointment. There remains a very real possibility that Penn could be on the wrong end of Columbia’s first win in over two years when the Quakers visit Kraft Field in two weeks. But Saturday belonged only to Dartmouth. Coach Buddy Teevens was pressed after the game to answer whether this was the best game he had ever seen Dalyn Williams play. He reluctantly answered yes … so far. And if Williams and Dartmouth can play any better than they did Saturday, the rest of the Ancient Eight won’t stand a chance.

Penn splits first Ivy doubleheader
VOLLEYBALL | Genske,
Bither have big games NICK BUCHTA Contributing Reporter
Live by the kill, die by the kill. For Penn volleyball, a heavy reliance on its freewheeling attack offered mixed results on the road in its first Ivy doubleheader of the year, as the Red and Blue took down Dartmouth on Friday before falling to Harvard the following evening. The Quakers (8-7, 2-1 Ivy) came into their weekend slate looking to build upon the momentum from their conference-opening win against Princeton last Friday. Penn came out firing, taking down the Big Green (5-7, 2-1) in straight sets on the backs of near double-double performances from seniors Alexis Genske and Ronnie Bither. Going up against a Dartmouth squad fresh off of an upset over Harvard to open Ivy play, Penn opened up a 7-0 lead that set the tone for Friday’s contest. While the Big Green battled back to knot the set at 18 apiece, a kill by sophomore Michelle Pereira righted the ship, sparking a second seven-point run that led to a 25-18 victory in the first set. “We came out very flawless on Friday night and put away Dartmouth really well,� coach Kerry Carr said. �[We] really put them back on their heels right away and really never looked back and got better every game we played.� The Red and Blue took the next two sets with even greater ease, winning 25-17 and 25-12, respectively. Although the Quakers’ scoring reflected their balanced offensive strategy — eight players logged multiple kills in the match — it was Genske who led the way, putting up nine kills and eight block assists. Also key to Penn’s effort were 28 assists from Bither and 12 digs from Pereira. However, most promising may have been outside hitter Jasmine DeSilva. In what was her best performance since missing her entire junior season due to injury,

the senior notched eight kills on just 13 attacks. If the Quakers were looking to take their momentum into Saturday, the Crimson (6-7, 2-1) sought to right their own ship after the stunning loss to Dartmouth in their conference debut. Harvard successfully stymied Penn’s offense, with sophomore Kendall Covington’s poor .182 hitting percentage leading the way for the Red and Blue. Crimson outside hitter Corinne Bain continued her dominance on the court, pacing the team with 16 assists while finishing just shy of a triple-double with seven kills and nine digs. Unfortunately, Saturday represented a reversal of Friday’s effort for the Quakers, as they quickly fell
behind 5-1. Harvard maintained a four-to-five point advantage for most of the first set, with the Red and Blue getting no closer than 13-11 en route to a 25-19 loss. Penn was unable to take the advantage in the second set as Harvard went up, 7-5, before rattling off 11 of the next 13 points, and a Bain kill eventually capped off the set, 25-13. Out of the break, an attack error by Bain gave the Quakers their first and only lead of the night, as the Crimson responded with seven straight points of their own. The rest of the set was similar in form to the previous one, and Harvard went on to capture the set, 25-14, and with it, the match. “Right from the start Harvard

had us a little bit back on our heels with their strong offensive attack,� Carr said. “We were staying with them for a little bit and then we made a couple of mental errors, and I think we just got a little unnerved.� Although this weekend marked the third straight Harvard-Dartmouth doubleheader the Red and Blue have split, Penn did manage to match their win total for the entire 2014 season with the win over the Big Green. The Quakers will look to surpass last year’s win total — and make progress on improving from a fifth-place 2014 conference finish — when they host Cornell and Columbia this Friday and Saturday in their annual Dig Pink charity weekend.

Quakers battle to a draw in defensive slugfest
W. SOCCER | Penn hangs
were forced to give ground, the back line — anchored by seniors Paige Lombard, Shannon
Hennessy and Caroline Dwyer — held strong and was able to minimize Cornell’s dangerous
opportunities. “This year, we have a lot of girls in the back who haven’t played with each other a lot, but every game we get a little more solid playing together,” Lombard said. “We are starting to really learn each other’s movements and tendencies, and our communication gets better every time we play.” “We made a few mistakes [in a 2-0 loss to] Harvard last week defensively on set pieces and that was what cost us, but tonight I think we played very well in back,” coach Nicole Van Dyke said. “We were able to shore up those mistakes and didn’t give Cornell many sniffs at goal”. In the second half, the Quakers at last got a chance to play with the wind at their backs, but it was Cornell that manufactured the first, as well as one of the best, opportunities of the half. Sophomore forward Paige DeLoach broke free from
On the Red and Blue’s first series of the game, Solomon fumbled on his second carry after he appeared to pick up a first down, and the Big Green recovered at the Penn 27. Four plays later, Dalyn Williams completed his second pass to Victor Williams for an eight-yard touchdown. After a Penn three-and-out, two Willia ms-to -Willia ms completions for 31 yards put
Dartmouth just outside the red zone. Dalyn Williams then carried the ball on the next three plays, gaining 21 total yards, with the final rush putting the Big Green up, 13-0. After another punt by the Quakers, Dartmouth marched down the field, with Dalyn Williams eventually scoring on a one-yard rush a few minutes into the second quarter. The Big
Green got the ball back just over a minute later, and the Corinth, Texas, native iced off the drive with a beautiful 22-yard throw to Brown to make it 27-0. With seven minutes on the clock, Torgersen rebounded to lead Penn on a 74-yard drive. After a crucial pass interference penalty deep in Dartmouth territory, the veteran plunged through for a one-yard rushing touchdown

Parity was the name of the game under the lights at Penn Park on Friday night. On a frigid, rain-swept night, 110 minutes of play were not enough to separate Penn women’s soccer and Cornell, who battled to a 0-0 draw. Penn (4-4-3, 0-1-1 Ivy) found itself on its back foot early as it faced not only a ferocious head wind, but also a Big Red squad that came out of the gates fast, looking to continue their unbeaten run. Cornell (8-0-3, 1-0-1) forced the Quakers back into their own defensive third for much of the first half, as wind-enhanced long balls and crosses kept Penn’s defense backpedaling. But while the Red and Blue

defense, which rarely pressured Dalyn Williams in the pocket. When they did, the Quakers could not stop the quarterback from scrambling for sizable gains. “The key was our inability to get pressure on the quarterback,” Priore said. “Our standard fourman stuff was not getting there.”

more confident going forward,” Swenson said. “Being more offensive helped us out a lot.” Now with the lead, the Red and Blue traded barbs with the Big Red (1-8-1, 0-0-1) as the second half began, with both sides getting off more shots than in the first period. While Cornell registered three shots in the second half, Swenson put the nail in the coffin in the 82nd minute. Off a cross from sophomore Luka Martinovic, the Massapequa Park, N.Y., native banged home a shot to seal the match. With assists from a freshman and a sophomore, as well as a brace from the sophomore transfer, the Quakers’ win was undoubtedly made possible by outstanding performances from a handful of young players. “I told them this after the Penn State game: You’re not freshman anymore,” coach Rudy Fuller said. “All of them have played significant minutes, so their experience or being freshmen isn’t an excuse. When they’re on the field, they’re expected to make an impact, and I think they’ve been doing that.” Both Levenfiche and Fuller also attributed the Red and Blue’s success to an improved chem ist r y a nd con f idence among the players. “It was definitely a slow start [to the season], and that’s something that has characterized the games in which we’ve struggled earlier this year,” Levenfiche said. “But in the last two games, we’ve been attacking more and asking questions of the opposition’s defense, and that’s been the difference. We’ve been more confident in our play. Now, fresh off consecutive wins in which a dormant offense has awakened and the back line has maintained clean sheets, the Quakers are finally playing like the team many thought would compete for the Ivy title this season. “The momentum just keeps coming, and we’re getting better and better,” Swenson said. But with a decent Columbia squad on tap for Penn’s next matchup, Fuller is quick to point out that the team still has not reached its peak performance. “We’re still a work in progress,” he said. “I think we still can get better in a lot of areas and we have our work cut out for us against Columbia next weekend.”

the Penn defense with a clear shot at goal, but was denied at point blank range by junior goalkeeper Carrie Crook, who played a solid game between the sticks for the Red and Blue. After that, however, it was all Quakers, with Penn taking full advantage of playing with the wind and getting off shots on goal. The Quakers’ best chance of the game came off the foot of senior midfielder Erin Mikolai, when she caught the Cornell keeper f lat footed midway through the second half and lofted a shot that deflected off the corner of the post. This was the closest either team would come to breaking the deadlock, and while Penn continued to enjoy the majority of the possession and scoring chances throughout regulation and overtime, the Big Red’s back line held just as firmly as Penn’s had in the first half. “We knew we were going to have the advantage in the
second half, and so we literally had to weather the storm, and we were able to come up with some chances in the second half,” Van Dyke said. “We are just a little bit of timing, a little bit of taking risks and taking chances away from finding a way to put that ball in the net, and it’s just an area of the game we have to get better at. “ In the end though, while Penn was able to grab a point against an undefeated Ivy League rival, it’s clear that ma ny of the players a nd coaches feel that there were points left on the table. “Is it a good result on paper? Yeah, but ultimately our goal is to win games,” Van Dyke said. “We had some chances to do that, but we need to be better at taking those chances.” The Quakers will next be in action on Monday night in their penultimate non-conference match of the season, facing off with Lehigh at Rhodes Field.
right before halftime. The Big Green didn’t waste any time at the beginning of the second half, taking the kickoff 35 yards to their own 43-yard line. Dalyn Williams completed 22- and 30-yard passes to Ryder Stone and Brown, respectively, the latter of which went for a touchdown. With Dartmouth up 34-6, the Williams duo hooked up for a
long 43-yard touchdown with moments left in the third quarter to open up a five-score lead. Now playing against a full prevent defense and with Torgersen out with a head injury, Lisa threw two touchdown passes to Watson and Cam Countryman. Next week, the Red and Blue will get a chance at redemption as they host Fordham, a team against whom they lost 60-22 last year.

T h e f lo o dga t e s h ave opened. Six days ago, Penn men’s soccer was in dire straits. The team had failed to score a
goal in five of its six matches in 2015, and found itself winless with Ivy play looming. Consider the script flipped. After notching a 3-0 win over Saint Joseph’s on Tuesday, the Quakers got off to a hot start in Ivy League play on Saturday night, as sophomore Joe Swenson notched a goal in each half against Cornell to lead Penn to a 2-0
victory. The Red and Blue (25 -1, 1- 0 - 0 Iv y) fou nd themselves largely on the defensive th roughout the opening frame, committing eight fouls while conceding three corner kicks. However, half an hour into the match, freshman Teddie Levenfiche crossed a low ball into the box that Swenson pushed into
the back of the net to give Penn the lead. “The first one came from Teddy and I knew he was going to play it into me,” Swenson said. “That was just me knowing where to be to get it and him putting it in a great spot.” Swenson’s goal was the first of the season — and the first of his career as a whole.

Quakers topple Crimson in OT FIELD HOCKEY Penn
T
wo years ago, thensophomore quarterback Dalyn Williams thought he had led Dartmouth to a seemingly improbable win over Penn. The Big Green’s young star spiked the ball and pointed to the sky with four seconds left before the Quakers came up with an even more improbable blocked field goal, eventually winning in the longest game in Ivy League history. This year, there would be no last-second block. There would be no doubt. Williams — now a senior with the Twitter username @IVLeaguezFinest — displayed to the Ancient Eight why the Big Green are the team to beat after a 41-20 thrashing at Franklin Field.

Make it seven in a row for Penn field hockey. Entering their match on Saturday on a six-game winning streak, the Quakers went head-to-head with Ivy League opponent Harvard up in Cambridge, Mass., and came out on top, 2-1, in an intense overtime contest. The first half proved to be challenging for the Red and Blue (7-1, 2-0 Ivy) as they were initially forced onto the defensive. Cutting into Penn’s back line, Harvard’s Marissa Balleza fielded a pass from Ellie Cookson and drove it past sophomore goalkeeper Liz Mata into the back of the net. The rest of the half was dominated by an intense Crimson defense that helped the squad carry its 1-0 lead into halftime. Nine minutes into the
second half, Harvard (6-3, 1-1) scored off of a penalty corner to go up, 2-0. However, after a brief discussion between the referees, the goal was disallowed, keeping the score at 1-0.

With only four minutes left in the second half, junior Claire Kneizys maneuvered the right side of the arc off a penalty corner before passing the ball to Guccione on the other side of the field.
