The First 100 Days Geoffrey Garrett

Wharton’s new dean, an Australian with an affinity for Twitter, says he’s hit the ceiling of business academia. He wants to see more of a focus on internationalism and using business as a force for change.

“Just landed in Seoul to visit fantastic @Wharton alums. #Ebola precautions very visible,” Wharton Dean Geoffrey Garrett tweeted from his account on Sunday. Whether he’s tweeting selfies with students from Philadelphia, open shots with Penn alumni from New York or musings on economics from Hong Kong, Garrett’s tweets — like the man himself — have a global character.

“I get to lead an unbelievably blessed life that I hope is also reasonably interesting,” Garrett said of his Twitter presence. “If I can give it some real local flavor of the day, I hope that’s of interest to people who are interested in and supportive of the Wharton School.”

Garrett, who marked his first 100 days at the helm of Wharton on Oct. 9 — Wharton did not grant interviews with Garrett about his deanship until earlier this week — has dedicated his time so far

to analyzing Wharton’s position as a global leader in business education. He wants to build on the school’s 130-year heritage to make it “more powerful in the next century than it was in the last century.” Garrett has yet to implement any significant changes at Wharton, but has so far focused on evaluating what he can add to the school.

And Garrett already has a slogan in mind for his tenure at Wharton. Citing his desire to preserve and leverage the school’s long history, he believes that the term “built to last” is most ap-

When participants in on-campus recruiting are presented with exploding offers and bonuses — employment offers that are retracted if not accepted within a short amount of time — Career Services wants

them to know that they have recourse.

“There’s a war for talent,” Director of Career Services Patricia Rose said. “Our students have a lot of opportunities, and they don’t realize that they have some control and some power and we can help them exercise that.”

In response to an Oct. 7 article in The Daily Pennsylvanian in which students testified that they had been pressured, sometimes in “underhanded” ways, to respond

quickly to employment offers obtained through OCR, Rose said that her department has mechanisms in place to help students push back.

Rose explained that an offer letter asking for a response before Oct. 28, the date set by Career Services as the earliest an employer can demand a commitment, is permissible if the offer will not be rescinded prematurely. She did still call that practice “unfair” to students and noted that if the employer is aware that the student has until Oct. 28 to respond

Spotify last month ranked Penn its top college for EDM music. And with EDM comes Molly, a purer form of ecstasy that releases serotonin in the brain, lifting the users’ moods.

While Penn students might listen to Calvin Harris more than peers at other schools, their Molly use seems to be in line with the national trend. Director of the Office of Alcohol and Other Drugs Julie Lyzinski Nettleton has observed an uptick in Mol-

ly use on campus in recent years, but so have her counterparts at other schools, she said.

In addition to serotonin, the drug also triggers the release of the hormones oxytocin and vasopressin, which play a role in increasing feelings of love and sexual arousal. Studies have shown that long-term MDMA use can lead to long-lasting confusion, depression and problems with memory and attention.

UA secretary steps down from role on executive board SONIA SIDHU Staff Writer

College sophomore Natalie Hernandez resigned from her position as Undergraduate Assembly secretary on Sunday afternoon. Hernandez will still serve as a College representative.

Hernandez said she is stepping down to focus on academics. In an email to the UA informing them of her decision, she stated that acting as UA secretary has been a rewarding experience but that her first priority is academics.

The UA will hold internal elections at its Oct. 26 meeting to fill the position, with Nominations and Elections Committee Chair and Wharton junior Devin Grossman overseeing the process. For a new secretary to be elected, a majority of the UA general body must vote for that person.

UA Communications Director and College junior Robyn Saad said that the UA “[praises] members ... who choose to give up positions in order to benefit the student body by providing the opportunity to someone who will better suit the job.”

As secretary, Hernandez was expected to oversee administrative duties for the UA’s weekly general body and Steering meetings, as well as attend executive board and Cabinet

meetings, serve as a liaison from one of the UA’s four committees to the executive board and plan bonding events for the UA general body.

UA President and College senior Joyce Kim estimated that the UA secretary position required nine to 11 hours in addition to general body member commitments.

“It’s hard because you run in the spring and come fall, your perception of time changes so much in terms of what you can do,” Kim said. “What is good this time around is because we are in the middle of the semester people know exactly what their commitments are.”

In an email to the UA general body on Sunday afternoon, UA speaker and College junior Andrew Robertson said that he will miss Hernandez but knows that she is making “the right decision for [her] and for the body.”

UA Representative and College sophomore Daniel Kahana said that he and Hernandez are close friends and he respects her decision to step down.

“She always give 100 percent to her commitments, and she should be proud of the fact that she was brave enough to step down and give the position to someone who could give the 100 percent,” Kahana said. “This also shows that she is about the purpose, not the position.”

In 2007, Gutmann became the first Ivy League president to sign the American College and University President’s Climate Commitment, which committed Penn to both develop plans for significant reductions of greenhouse gasses and promote general sustainability on campus. As a

Ronald McDonald House launches campaign to add rooms The first Ronald McDonald House in the U.S. turned 40 last week EUNICE LIM Staff Writer

When the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House opened 40 years ago last week, it only had seven rooms.

Since then, the first Ronald McDonald House in the country has grown into two houses, one on 39th and Chestnut streets with 45 rooms and one on Front and Erie with 18 rooms. Each serves as a “home away from home” for families of terminally ill children who are being treated at local hospitals, according to the program’s website.

But now, there isn’t enough space in the house to accommodate families seeking treatment.

In 2013, the house served 2,379 families from 46 states and 20 countries but turned away 2,888 families due to lack of space and resources.

“This devastating statistic highlights both the demand for our services and the need to increase capacity,” Susan Campbell, executive director of the Philadelphia House, said in an email statement provided by a spokesperson.

That’s why on Friday, at the 40th anniversary celebration of Philadelphia’s Ronald McDonald House, Campbell announced the launch of a fundraising campaign to expand the house’s capacity.

“Because we are always full and there is always a waiting list,

part of this pledge, Penn created the Environmental Sustainability Advisory Committee, which drafted the first Climate Action Plan, a comprehensive list of the strategies the University would undertake to accomplish its sustainability and emission goals.

As of 2011, when Penn re-

we are looking to expand for the future,” said Jennifer Shipman, director of marketing and communications for the Philadelphia House. “The 40th anniversary was a pivotal turning point, because we recognized the need and kicked off the fundraising to grow the house.”

For those who are able to use the house, it has been immensely beneficial.

The family of Emily Whitehead, a six-year old girl in 2012 who had acute lymphoblastic leukemia, benefited from the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House by staying there when she was successfully treated by Penn professor Carl June’s experimental immune therapy treatment.

The Ronald McDonald House only charges $15 per night. But for the nearly 55 percent of families who are unable to stay at

leased a progress report on the first Climate Action Plan, the University had increased academic awareness of greenhouse gasses through 160 classes related to environmental sustainability. The campus recycling rate had also increased from 21 percent in 2008 to 31 percent in 2011. However,

the house due to capacity limits, there could be extra costs.

“Right now, only about 20 percent of our patients benefit from the house because capacity is limited,” June said. “The Ronald McDonald House is important because our hospital system doesn’t provide infrastructure to take care of out-of-town pediatric cases, and it needs more space.”

Friday’s gala was the first step toward increasing space at the Philadelphia house. Over 1,000 supporters attended the anniversary gala, emceed by CBS3 personalities Chris May and Kathy Orr. The largest sponsor at the gala was the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, which donated $50,000 to secure two tables for twenty people.

Four Penn doctors — June and his colleagues Stephan Grupp, Bruce Levine and David L. Por-

ter — were also honored at the gala with the Dr. Audrey E. Evans Award of Excellence for their immune therapy work using genetically modified HIV cells to treat children, like Whitehead, with acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

The anniversary gala culminated with a live auction, in which the emcees auctioned off contributions to the future of the Ronald McDonald House and raised over $200,000 to contribute to future construction and expansion of the house and its services.

“Families travel from all over the world to Philadelphia because some diseases can only be treated here, and the Children’s Hospital especially is the gold standard,” Shipman said. “So, there’s always going to be a high need for the Ronald McDonald House.”

the report indicated that Penn had not reached its goal of reducing carbon emissions: In the 2011 fiscal year, which lasted from July 1, 2010 to June 30, 2011, Penn’s carbon emissions were 1.4 percent higher than in FY 2007, a fact the report attributed to recent building additions.

As of early October 2014, 11 buildings or areas at Penn — the most recent of which are Krishna P. Singh Center for Nanotechnology and the Wharton School’s Steinberg-Dietrich Hall West Tower Entrance addition — have received LEED Certification for emphasizing sustainability.

Report highlights University City as neighborhood on the rise

University City District predicts 7,000 new jobs by 2016 SOPHIA WITTE Staff Writer

While construction and overhead cranes have taken over campus this past year, a University City District report says this means that the neighborhood is thriving more than ever.

Over the past five years, more than $4.6 billion has been invested in real estate development, with over 2,000 new housing units anticipated by the end of 2016, according to UCD’s “State of University City” report released on Wednesday. As the office occupancy rate rose to 96 percent this year, University City is expected to have over 7,000 new jobs by 2016.

The number of restaurants — up by 17 percent since 2009 — has also increased with the residential and office growth.

The recent wave of investment has created “an unprecedented feeling of momentum for the neighborhood,” UCD’s Policy and Research Manager Seth Budick said. “We hope to create a quality of life that supports the investments that are coming in.”

The recent cycle of investment and growth is linked to the innovative environment that local institutions like Penn have fostered.

Especially as projects on Penn property are being developed — like the Hub3939 and FMC Tower — and as Drexel plans for the Innovation Neighborhood, University City is increasingly stimulating commerce.

“Everyone wants to be near research and progress,” Budick said.

The report itself adds to the neighborhood’s economic development since “it is used as a tool for selling the neighborhood,” UCD spokesperson Lori Brennan said.

UCD partners, including Penn, distribute the report as a way to

Other local organizations often include the report in grant applications since the backdrop of a promising neighborhood improves their chances of winning investment dollars.

While the report’s data highlights how far University City has come, UCD representatives admit there is still work to be done. With 31 percent of West Philadelphians living below the poverty level, about 15 percent of West Philadelphia residents are unemployed.

“It’s easy to gloss over our relationship with some parts of the neighborhood, but we can’t talk about all this good without addressing issues of unemployment, education and other problems that still exist here,” Brennan said.

Beyond supporting business and innovation, UCD is working to reduce unemployment through the West Philadelphia Skills Initiative, which connects unemployed residents to local employers.

UCD is also working to enhance the vibrancy of public spaces around the neighborhood’s west-

ern and eastern edges. UCD is revitalizing the Porch at 30th Street Station and the 40th Street trolley portal — potential centers of bus-

tling activity — as a way to make University City an anchor between Center City and other adjacent areas, Budick said.

with us we can’t do anything,” she added. “If we don’t know that [exploding offers] are happening, we can’t monitor them. The most important thing is for students to make us aware.” Career Services will only call firms that are reported to them if they have permission from the student to call about a particular case.

If firms refuse to give students more time after being contacted

by Career Services, the firm’s opportunities to recruit on campus become restricted. Career Services generally pushes information sessions and interview times for insubordinate firms until later in the OCR process. “And believe me,” Rose said, “Employers do not want to have their access to Penn students restricted.”

Although companies have been banned because they have not followed Career Services’ policies, Rose is “reluctant” to ban them from recruiting at Penn because she does not want to take opportunities away from students.

“I feel that the better approach ... is to say we’re going to make [companies] come later in the process when it’s closer to our deadlines so [they’re] not taking advantage of our students. That usually does the trick,” she said.

For their part, firms are pretty quiet on the topic of exploding offers.

The recruiting web pages of several major players in OCR, including Bain & Company, The Boston Consulting Group and Ernst & Young, do not mention expiring offers at all.

McKinsey & Company tells students seeking a position at McKinsey that they can contact their McKinsey recruiter should they receive an expiring offer from a different firm.

Students sometimes take advantage of policies like McKinsey’s, Rose said. Students tell firms that a competitor is pressuring them with an exploding offer just to claim an earlier interview. Students should be discouraged from using that tactic, she added.

“If we don’t provide an even playing field for employers they might not come back next year and that will hurt future Penn students. We want the employers to feel like ... everyone is playing by the same rules,” Rose said.

THE FAITHLESS QUAKER | Don’t worry, this won’t hurt a bit

A

man stuck in a flood is tossed a ladder. He refuses the aid, choosing instead to stand in place and pray. He’s later offered a lifeboat and, eventually, a helicopter. He refuses both, praying all the while and insisting that God will save him.

Upon drowning and reaching heaven, the unfortunate believer asks God why he wasn’t saved. “What are you talking about?” God says. “I sent you a ladder, a lifeboat and even a helicopter!”

This bitter joke is more relevant than it might seem. With Ebola outbreaks in Uganda and the Congo, thousands of deaths across West Africa and a fierce debate raging over border control, disaster is on the American mind. So is the desperate scramble for a vaccine.

As favorable as the mainstream might be toward medical science, you would expect a technologically advanced society to have an even stronger

consensus in favor of vaccination. Sadly, staunch opposition remains. We all know the stereotype of the fanatically faithful, who consider science and its heathen orchestrators diametrically opposed to religious faith.

Annoying as the Bible Belters are, the joke about the guy in the flood ought to address what the CDC calls their “philosophical objections.”

What’s really troubling is that the ultra religious aren’t the only ones who oppose vaccines. A surprising number of protestors hail from the wealthy, educated suburbs of California, which have been lulled into a false sense of security by low disease rates. Of course, vaccines are the very reason those diseases have been so infrequent, and the drop in vaccination rates over the last few years enabled a resurgence of whooping cough in California — the worst in almost a century.

Gossip and a misplaced fear of autism go a long way in explaining how the anti-vaccine

movement became so contagious. But the movement can’t be explained without addressing a dangerous underlying attitude.

We can’t rely on nature as a guiding concept for public decision-making.”

In areas such as these, emphasis on an eco-friendly and generally green lifestyle has spawned a homeopathic religion of its own. According to Californian suburbanites and fraudulent doctors, letting the body ward off disease by itself is more natural, so to speak, and Mother Nature has graced her children with all they need to live long and fruitful lives (including an invulnerable immune system).

This is a quintessential example of what philosophers call the appeal to nature — the falla-

cious assumption that whatever is natural is good and morally advisable.

Unfortunately, the cult of the natural has overstepped its bounds. These people are no different from the fanatically religious; they cling mindlessly to dogma, guided by simplistic maxims like “nature good, technology bad.” And their lack of insight is putting everyone at risk.

The whole idea of nature is a bit contrived, and not everything natural is necessarily your friend. Poisonous mushrooms, for instance, are so-called products of nature, yet they’re also about as lethal as it gets. Similarly, open-heart surgery, an artifice of human design, often means the difference between life and death. If Mother Nature were so concerned for her offspring, then the natural world, evolution included, would be far more pleasant than it actually is — and there would be no need for medical practice of any kind.

In fact, surgery, vaccines

and other medical technology are no less natural than the homeopathic “remedies” offered in their place. Biology is the systematic study of the living material world — which is included in nature — and medicine is the application of biology to human health. Vaccines give us mild doses of harmful pathogens, exploiting the workings of biology and chemistry to achieve favorable results. In what way is that not natural?

We can’t rely on nature as a guiding concept for public decision-making. The intuitions behind the idea of naturalness are sometimes valuable to examine, but they should be discussed openly to prevent confusion.

The homeopaths, like the religious, are making a fetish out of something unreliably vague; were they paying closer attention, they might realize that the things they’ve been rejecting are actually consistent with their general values.

More broadly, this all goes to show how mindlessness and

I

spend way too much time on Penn InTouch.

With Advance Registration looming over my head, I feel obligated to spend my free time creating mock schedules, deleting them, testing out the possibilities. It’s fun, to an extent — I can take a mural painting class?! — but when reality sets in, the process gets more frustrating. Instead of taking any class that sounds interesting, I need to chip away at Penn’s College curriculum requirements. But while that’s an annoying aspect of registration, course requirements don’t deserve all of our complaints.

Penn’s curriculum isn’t especially constraining compared to other top schools. Fair Harvard estimates that general education requirements make up 30 percent of a student’s total coursework. Old Yale forces students to take at least 10 general education classes, two for each “sector of learn-

THE DANALYST | Penn’s core curriculum may be annoying, but it makes us better students ing.” Columbia is notorious for having a set of six classes that all students must take .The exception, of course, is Brown’s open curriculum, which boasts no requirements at all. In the words of 1850 Brown president Francis Wayland, the average student should be able to “study what he chose, all that he chose and nothing but what he chose.”

While that’s all well and good for Brown students, an open curriculum creates the temptation for students to stick with what they know they’re good at. Academically, I’m extremely lopsided: I gravitate toward English and history and tend to stay away from anything close to a hard science. If I went to Brown, I’d most likely take only humanities courses.

But there’s an intrinsic value in pushing past our comfort zones. Penn’s core curriculum forces me to take classes I might not enjoy as much, but

will make me a more educated citizen. I’ll need to work my butt off to fulfill the Quantitative Data Analysis Requirement — maybe more so than I would in the creative writing class I’d take in its place — but I shouldn’t graduate without knowing how to think numerically. Penn has an obligation to turn us into well-rounded thinkers, or at the very least to ensure we have a standard knowledge base.

That aside, course requirements can be a useful tool — for freshmen especially. In a school this pre-professional, it’s tempting to gravitate toward the classes we “should” be taking, but course requirements force us to think outside our plans. My friends who swear they’ll go pre-med might fall in love with an Arts and Letters class; my tentative poli sci and English major plans might crumble when I take a formal reasoning class.

The point is that we’re young, we’re in our first year of college and it’s okay to not know what we want to do. Course requirements stop us from specializing too early.

English majors need rudimentary math skills to survive; Wharton kids need to know how to w r i te . L e a r n i n g across disciplines allows us to pick up skills we wouldn’t otherwise have, to teach us how to think.”

It sucks that I have to put off that creative writing course I’m interested in until next year,

but I want to become a more educated person. Requirements raise us to a level of competency so we can graduate with the knowledge base we need to take on the world. English majors need rudimentary math skills to survive; Wharton kids need to know how to write.

Learning across disciplines allows us to pick up skills we wouldn’t otherwise have, to teach us how to think. If that’s not the purpose of college, I don’t know what is.

Some complaints about the general requirement system are fair. Penn should allow AP credit to fulfill requirements — the AP curriculum is standardized across the nation; those classes are widely recognized as college-level courses. Furthermore, other Ivies let students use APs to get out of requirements. Why should Penn be different? But our foundational and sector requirements still have value.

DANI BLUM Am I annoyed that I have to put off taking a cool comp lit class so I can check off my req for Living World? Yes. But Penn forces us to be more educated. It’s like eating our vegetables: complain as we might, ultimately, we know they’re good for us.

doing it just a few times can then lead to pretty significant periods of depression afterwards,” Nettleton said. “Your brain is flooded with all of the feel-good stuff, and you do it enough times and it’s hard to feel good for a while after.”

President of the Interfraternity Council Jimmy Germi noted that the Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board’s alcohol crackdown may have driven some students toward drugs like Molly, though he said he himself had not observed a significant increase in drug use among Greeks. The IFC partnered with the Medical Emergency Response Team last semester to educate fraternity members on drug safety, but not Molly in particular.

MERT had a special Molly training session before Spring Fling last year to prepare for a possible increase in calls related to the drug — two of the last three Fling headliners have been EDM performers. Chief of

MERT Grace Kunas has seen students displaying Molly-related symptoms both at Penn and in her work at the Electric Daisy Festival last summer.

“I get that the music plays into the drug’s euphoria, but in terms of risk, an [EDM concert] is the worst place to do it,” Nettleton warned. Complications of taking Molly can alter the body’s ability to regulate temperature, especially when it is taken in concert settings that are often loud, cramped and overheated.

Kunas listed fever, increased sensory perception, touching other people, increased heart rate and rapid breathing as major symptoms of Molly use. Clenching of the teeth and jaw can also indicate a reaction to the drug.

Kunas explained that many first-time users become panicked, which leads them to voluntarily seek medical help. In addition, users can develop extreme thirst and become overheated, which requires medical attention. On campus, Molly users who seek medical attention are protect-

But if students are found to have abused Molly, or any other drug, there are several measures that Penn takes to prevent further problems. Students who sought medical attention for Molly use are expected to attend First Step, a brief intervention counseling program with Associate Director of OAOD Noelle Martin. OAOD created a specific Molly handout to distribute to students.

Ecstasy was a huge trend in the early 2000s when rave festivals were popular, but due to media exposure depicting ecstasy-related deaths and a decrease in rave concerts, the drug went out of style. With the EDM scene, it has made its comeback.

“What I find fascinating is that [ecstasy] has been repackaged to be called Molly,” Nettleton said.

“It looks different, and there is an assumption by students, which I believe to be erroneous, that it is safer and purer.”

propriate, a catchphrase coined by Ford Motor Company.

The mantra might sound ironic for Garrett, who held each of his two previous deanships for only about a year each. Garrett came to Wharton from the Australian School of Business at the Uni-

versity of New South Wales, and before that served as dean of The University of Sydney Business School.

John A. Byrne, the founder and editor-in-chief of business school news source Poets & Quants, blasted the University in March for tapping Garrett, a man he called “an itinerant job hopper,” to lead Wharton. Byrne was dis-

mayed that, by his count, Garrett worked for 11 different employers in the past 27 years.

Greg Whitwell, the current dean of The University of Sydney Business School and Garrett’s senior deputy dean at UNSW, said that a “mixture of emotions” accompanied Garrett’s departure for Wharton.

“Geoff’s leaving was, in a sense, creating a big hole for the business school, and for the university. He had articulated very well his vision for the business school,” Whitwell said. “It’s that much more difficult when the architect of that vision leaves.”

Whitwell added that despite the disappointment, there was a sense of pride associated with Garrett’s departure for one of the world’s top business schools.

And Garrett says he is at Wharton to stay. “Being the dean of one of the best, if not the best business school in the world is not a bad gig for anybody. I used to say, and it was true, that in Australia being the dean of the Australian School

of Business was probably the best job in Australia for me. This is probably the best job in the world for me,” he said.

While Garrett prepares for the road ahead, he has a clear image in mind of what a Wharton education should look like.

“We want to give [students] cutting edge technical and disciplinary skills, but we also need to have a matrix approach to that,” he said, emphasizing the importance of leadership training, internship opportunities and international experiences as crucial parts of the Wharton experience.

“I’m a very macro person, not a micro person. So I look at the role of business where it fits in economically, socially [and] how it affects geopolitics,” he said.

“I think that we’re living in this world in which there is an expanded role of the private sector, and a decreasing distance between private benefit and public good is going to be a big feature of the world.”

That, he said, means that busi-

THE DAILY PENNSYLVANIAN | THEDP.COM ness education will become more relevant, not less relevant, and it means that the leadership position Wharton occupies is even more important.

Wharton’s Vice Dean for Undergraduates Lori Rosenkopf thinks that Garrett will bring a fresh perspective to the undergraduate program. She praised his enthusiasm for engaging directly with students, citing a Sept.

4 breakfast with undergraduates that Garrett himself proposed. “It was his initiative to want to get out and really say hello to the students formally but in an informal way,” she said.

Whitwell also lauded Garrett’s performance as an academic leader. “Geoff has the ability to change the way you look at things. He always brings a fresh perspective. I think his background in political science and international affairs [adds] a whole new dimension to the way he [approaches] business issues,” Whitwell said, adding that Garrett’s strong background with

numbers also makes him a good business educator.

At UNSW, Whitwell said, Garrett emphasized the role of technology in transforming the student educational experience, the importance of business schools in having a positive impact on business, government and society and the role of the business school in working with the rest of the university.

“Geoff really does have a big picture approach. He’s very good at understanding trends. He understands what’s happening globally,” Whitwell added. “He’s got a good understanding [of] what’s happening in terms of international development, economic development, nations, [and] understanding where growth is occurring.”

“I actually have a lot of perspectives now, both on the world and on how different kinds of universities operate, which I think will allow me to do the job at Wharton better,” Garrett said. “I’m always on the glass half full side.”

Penn sprint football posts disappointing defeat Key injury leads to onetouchdown loss to Post on Saturday

BY THOMAS MUNSON Staff Writer F o r 1 3 m i nut e s , P e n n sprint football and Post were merely playing an uneventful field position battle.

However, that suddenly shifted when the Quakers’ senior st ar r unning back Mike Beamish was taken out of the game due to a bonecrushing hit by Post’s freshman corner Trevor Patterson with 2:31 remaining in the first quarter.

Patterson would be ejected for targeting and the Red and Blue would respond with a touchdown fueled by the emotion of seeing their captain go down. But ultimately, Post would emerge on top 2821 in a high-energy contest between the two teams.

“We were just fired up …

We wanted to get this win for him,” sophomore defensive

VS. POST back Chris Colavita said in reference to the atmosphere on the sideline after Beamish was taken out.

Beamish would return to the game briefly but would finish the game with negative two rushing yards before being taken out for good.

On the other sideline, Post (2-2) was fired up as well.

Despite being ejected, Patterson was receiving congratulatory handshakes as the whole team started jumping with excitement.

Ju st one m i nut e l at er, junior w ide receiver Jack Epstein hauled in a 50-yard pass from sophomore quarterback Mike McCurdy to put Penn up 7- 0. However, Post came back with a long t ouc hdow n of t hei r ow n .

Sophomore quar terback Greg Volpe threw an 81-yard bomb to junior wide receiver Jay’Len Mahan to even the

score.

McCurdy led the Red and Blue offense back onto the field hungr y to regain the lead. However, Penn lost any momentum when Post junior defensive back T.J. Piland hauled in an interception with 11:15 remaining in the half.

Colavita and the defense kept Penn’s spirits up with consistent pressure. But unfortunately for the Red and Blue, mistakes allowed Post multiple chances to capitalize.

“The bottom line was we had too many turnovers … and we just can’t do that,” coach Bill Wagner said.

Wagner also commented on the defense, which let up a couple crushing big plays that led to Eagle touchdowns, saying, “We gotta start tackling better. That’s all.”

Down 21-7 with seven minutes remaining in the third, the Quakers’ offense finally found their way into the red zone. Junior wide receiver Henry Mason was McCurdy’s

man all drive. Well over six feet tall, Mason did a great job of gett i ng sepa rat ion and taking advantage of his height to exploit the shorter Eagles defensive backs. It was Mason who caught McCurdy’s second touchdown pass of the night on an 11yard score, cutting the Post lead to seven.

After a Post rushing touchdown that made the score 28-14, it was again Colavita who gave Penn a spark after he returned the kickoff to midfield. McCurdy, however, would again make a costly decision when he threw his third pick of the night two plays later.

Still Penn wasn’t ready to give up. After another tackle for loss by Colavita, Penn got the ball back with four minutes left. This time, McCurdy found freshman receiver Andrew Sutton for six as Penn cut the deficit in half.

In the end, Penn’s comeback hopes would fade when McCurdy fumbled with 1:32 remaining.

ILANA WURMAN/STAFF PHOTOGRAPHER

After taking a big hit in the first quarter, star senior running back Mike Beamish had to be taken off the field. He would briefly return but was largely ineffective.

“I couldn’t protect the ball.

So, I gotta do a better job of that next week,” McCurdy said of his four turnovers.

He took all the blame and refused to pin the absence of Beamish or the play of his lineman for his miscues.

Penn would not allow another goal and seal the victory.

“I think we have a talented team, good leadership, a lot of experience around the field,” Fuller said. “I don’t view the losses as letting the game get away late, it’s just we didn’t defend well.”

“When we’re able to focus on it, stay in tune and connected, we’re very difficult to break down.”

So with Penn’s top three out, the buck stopped with ... sophomore Brian Schoenauer?

Though a relative unknown for Penn fans, Schoenauer impressed in his first career start.

The sophomore had 18 carries, picking up 77 of the team’s 276 total yards on the ground and consistently driving forward to gain extra yards.

Between Schoenauer and senior Eric Fiore, the Quakers were in good hands. Fiore’s 12-yard run in the first quarter knotted the game for Penn, and the duo consistently made the plays needed to help a sputtering team right the ship.

Not only did they provide relief to an offense that had thrown the ball 107 times in two games, the backs also set the tone for a winning game plan.

The numbers from the early portion of the Red and Blue’s season weren’t terrible. The team averaged 131.8 yards per game on the ground, a mark good enough for fifth in the Ivy League entering Saturday’s

half on a Torgersen fumble, but no harm was done after Columbia missed a field goal.

The Quakers’ defense shut down Columbia’s rushing attack in the early going, holding Lions back Cameron Molina to 18 yards on 11 carries in the first half.

“We played assignment football and stuck our gaps,” senior defensive back Evan Jackson said. “The guys up front did a great job swarming to the football. It was a good performance

game.

But it’s important to remember that other than a strong performance against Jacksonville, the rest of the Quakers’ yard totals this year have been either supbar or meaningless. Ninety-seven yards against Villanova. Thirty-three against Dartmouth. And 187 in a 38-point loss to Fordham.

In Penn’s two best performances this season, first against Jacksonville and now against Columbia, the team has been able to run the ball. Sometimes, the recipe for success is that simple.

And while after the game Bagnoli mentioned that the lack of production from the running game has stemmed from the Quakers’ large deficits this year, it’s clear that Penn will need to establish its running game early and often — as it did on Saturday — if it wants to stay in the Ivy title chase.

While Saturday’s win may have come against Columbia, a team poised to go 0-for-the season once again, the Red and Blue’s ground production is a step in the right direction for

for the run defense.”

Penn started out the second half hot, aided by a running into the punter penalty. After first down runs by Schoenauer and Torgersen in Penn’s first drive, a quarterback sneak by Torgersen gave the Quakers a 21-7 lead after a seven-minute march down the field.

Following a Columbia punt, Penn used a beautifully executed 48-yard screen play to Fiore to set up a three-yard plunge by Strouss, extending the lead to

28-7 with 1:49 remaining in the third quarter.

“We have some injuries, so its just next guy up,” said Fiore, who had 89 all-purpose yards.

“We have a lot of capable guys.

I’m just fortunate I’m able to be that next man up.”

Penn would add a 23-yard field goal by Jimmy Gammill while the defense held Columbia in check.

The Quakers head to Yale next week in a crucial battle to keep their Ivy hopes alive.

Penn cross country sees into its own future Both the men and women impressed at the Princeton Invitational

and junior Elyssa Gensib led the Quakers to the secondbest team score, as the group crossed the line in the 13th15th positions. It was Cleo’s first race of the year back from injury. “I thought we did an excellent job at executing our team’s game plan today,� coach Steve Dolan said of his team’s performance. “On the women’s side especially, out runners stayed together and work off each other, and it lead to some quality results.�

In the 8,000m championship event, the men finished third overall behind Villanova and Virginia Tech, and junior Thomas Awad won the event with a time of 24:00 minutes flat, adding to what has already been an impressive season for the Quakers’ top runner. “ Tom had a n excellent race today, and to win on this course I think will go a long way towards boosting his confidence when it comes to racing here again in two weeks,�

Dolan said. “I think it was definitely a valuable and positive experience, for everyone to get in some miles on this course.�

BY SAM ALTLAND Staff Writer All roads lead to Heptagonals for Penn cross country, and fortunately for the Quakers, they are going to be intimately familiar with the road in question.

Running on the same course where they will vie for supremacy in the Ancient Eight in just two short weeks, the men’s and women’s cross country programs put together impressive performances at Saturday’s annual Princeton Invitational.

The younger Quakers kicked off the morning by placing second as a team in the women’s open 6,000-meter event, falling only behind Ivy rival Cornell.

The Red and Blue were carried by back-to-back fifth and sixth place finishes from the freshman tandem of Isabel Griffith and Karen Xiang, who posted times of 23:16 and 23:17 respectively.

up the day of racing in spectacular fashion, as the younger Quakers captured the top team spot in the men’s open 8,000m event, a race that saw six Penn runners place inside the top 25. This included a third-place finish by freshman Chris Luciano, a fourth-place finish by sophomore Chris Hatler and a sixth-place finish by junior Clark Shurtleff.

After placing 15th and 20th in last year’s men’s and women’s championship events at this meet, it is clear that the program has come quite a long way in just the span of a year. “The one thing I was thinking when I was watching the woman’s race was how much deeper we are as a team in terms of the number of runners we have racing at a high level,� Dolan said. “Part of it is that we’ve worked really hard to be where we are, but part of it is that success is contagious, and we have more and more runners feeding off that [success].�

While Penn will certainly be pleased with its performance today, the results need to be taken with a grain of salt. “It was a good day for us, but the fact is we are going to have

Just three minutes into the second half, junior Jackie Friedman sent a solid unassisted shot to the back of the net following a failed attempt by the Quakers to clear a Dartmouth corner.

Ambrose gave credit to his squad for its first half fire, yet spoke of a more profound flaw in the team’s culture. “When your upperclassmen don’t step up and perform at the level they’re expected to, it doesn’t set a great example for our younger players,� he said. “And in turn, the younger players don’t perform to the expectations and standards that go with our program.

The Quakers’ coach displayed frustration with the team’s utter lack of consistency. “At the moment, we don’t have consistency in performance from anyone,� Ambrose said. “We haven’t really strung anything together on either side. By virtue of our roster, between graduation and injuries, we’re just so young that we don’t have a foothold where the girls can have conf idence in their games. They’re not quite sure what they’re capable of.�

One of the most notable storylines from the Quakers’ sideline was the decision to bench reigning first-team AllIvy goalkeeper Kalijah Terilli and freshman Juliana Provini, who leads the Red and Blue with five points. “They were decisions we

Quakers split pair of weekend matches FIELD HOCKEY Penn rebounds from tough loss on Saturday

VS. LONGWOOD

game and a go-ahead goal.

The Quakers took a 3-2 lead into the final two minutes of the game, only to see Columbia’s Christina Freibott tie the game with 1:41 remaining. Just 16 seconds into the ensuing overtime, freshman Whitney Hartstone scored the sudden-death winner for the Lions.

Fink was puzzled by her team’s defensive breakdown on the game’s final play.

“I don’t know about that last goal,” she said. “I don’t know if people misunderstood their role defensively, but you can’t give up a wide-open goal like that in OT.” Freibott scored three of her team’s four goals and assisted on the fourth. The defending Ivy League Player of the Week, the junior made a

For Penn field hockey, it was a weekend of extremes.

The Quakers lost an overtime heartbreaker, 4-3, to Columbia on Saturday but rebounded to pick up an impressive 5-0 victory over Longwood on Sunday.

Coach Colleen Fink was pleased with her team’s resiliency despite the loss.

“We needed to bounce back quickly,” she said. “We did a good job of playing with a little more intensity.”

Saturday’s loss was perhaps Penn’s most disappointing all year. The Red and Blue (5-7, 1-3 Ivy) were down, 2-1, at halftime before junior Elizabeth Hitti helped put Penn in front with her second assist of the

strong case for a repeat nod.

Despite the short period to regroup, the Quakers dominated from start to finish on Sunday. The Red and Blue got five goals from four different players en route to the shutout victory — their first win in their last five games.

Freshman Alexa Hoover scored twice, pushing her season total to a team-high 11 goals. F reshmen Gina Guccione and Rachel Huang also chipped in with goals, as well as senior midfielder Alex Iqbal.

Iqbal scored in both of the weekend’s games, pushing her total to six goals on the season.

“She was out for three games, but now she’s back and feeling good,” Fink said of Iqbal. “She’s a huge part

of this team and its success.

Whether she scores or not, she’s a key contributor.”

While the win over Longwood is a nice confidence booster, it didn’t help the Quakers’ Ivy League record.

Penn currently sits at 1-3 in Ancient Eight play, good for sixth place.

The Red and Blue will get a chance to improve that mark when they travel to Yale on Saturday. The Bulldogs are 2-10 overall and winless in Ivy League play.

Coming off of four straight losses capped by an OT stunner, Penn demonstrated its ability to get back on its feet.

However, the Quakers still have a lot of work to do to salvage their chances of finishing near the top of the Ivy League.

BRIEF ROWING | Quakers

find mixed results

— Oscar Rudenstam This Sunday, Penn sent a handful of boats to the annual Head of the Charles regatta in Boston, ending up with some mixed finishes.

The heavyweight crew, which was represented by one boat at the event, finished 20th out of 36 boats in the men’s championship eights race.

The race gave the heavyweight crew an opportunity to measure up against its competition for the coming Princeton Chase event next weekend.

Four other Ivy League boats finished ahead of Penn, one of which — Harvard — had a particularly strong showing, as its top boat finished third,

beating the USRowing and French national boats, among others.

The lightweights had boats in the lightweight four and eight races, where they managed to show some strength.

In the lightweight fours, one boat finished seventh out of 22 boats, while the other finished 20th.

In the lightweight eight race, the single boat representing Penn managed to finish sixth, beating out big names like Yale, Dartmouth and Navy.

The women were represented in the championship four and eight races.

The single boat in the four race struggled, coming in at 14th best out of 17 boats. Despite the finish, it bested rivals Cornell and Columbia.

In the eight race, the women finished 20th out of 34.

FIRST STEP FORWARD

Better late than never for Penn’s running game RILEY STEELE

E

Penn’s offense switched up the tempo with eight minutes left in the first half, running a wildcat formation with sophomore Adam Strouss behind center.

The move helped to kickstart the offense, as the Red and Blue were able to use an effective mix of run and pass to quickly march down a short field. A pretty Torgersen pass completed to senior Conner Scott

ntering this season, it was easy to point to several of Penn football’s different units and marvel at the team’s depth.

Sure, while the offensive line lacked experience and sophomore quarterback Alek Torgersen was untested, the Red and Blue’s wide receiving corps, secondary and even their defensive front seven were laden with veterans.

With so many other storylines surrounding Penn, it was easy to overlook the squad’s deep backfield.

But the keys to success were there.

With veteran Lyle Marsh returning from a year away from the team, he and bruising senior Kyle Wilcox seemed likely to split most of the team’s carries. That pair, combined with freshman Tre Solomon, offered what Bagnoli termed “three different styles to form a great 1-2-3 punch.”

Yet four games into the season, all three were injured. And even when any of the three were healthy, the Quakers struggled.

Save for Kyle Wilcox’s 67-yard touchdown scamper against Villanova — a score that ended up being the only points the team put on the board against the Wildcats — it is far easier to recall Penn’s 27 carries for 33 yards against Dartmouth.

Some of that could be the result of the Red and Blue’s adjustment to their new spread, up-tempo offensive system. Some of that could come from the caliber of Penn’s opponents. Some of it could be growing pains behind a relatively young offensive line.

Undoubtedly, Penn’s running game has failed to impress this season. Until Saturday, that is.

FOOTBALL | Penn routs Columbia for first win of the year

BY SEAMUS POWERS Staff Writer Penn football can breathe a little easier now.

After a slow start, the Quakers dominated visiting Columbia, 31-7, with their most complete offensive effort of the season.

With injuries to leading rushers Kyle Wilcox, Tre

Solomon and Lyle Marsh, the questions surrounding Penn’s running game were answered by sophomore Brian Schoenauer and senior Eric Fiore, who led the Red and Blue’s over 200-yard combined rushing effort alongside quarterback Alek Torgersen.

“After this game, we can feel a little bit better about ourselves and have more confidence,” coach Al Bagnoli said.

The Red and Blue (1-4, 1-1 Ivy) quickly fell behind,

as the Lions (0-5, 0-2) drove the ball down the field with ease on their first drive.

Lions’ junior quarterback Trevor McDonagh found Zach Dansby with a sixyard touchdown pass after carving up the Penn secondary on a series of short-to-midrange tosses.

On its third drive, the Red and Blue offense got the ground game going behind Schoenauer.

S ever a l S choenauer runs and a pass interference call on Columbia

brought Penn into the red zone. From there, a powerful 12-yard touchdown run off the right edge by Fiore capped off the game-tying drive with four minutes left in the first quarter.

“Eric has played tailback for three days — on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday,” Bagnoli said. “He has come in and had extra meetings, and I thought he acquitted himself very well. To his credit, he was ready to go.”

W. SOCCER | Coach Ambrose calls out team for poor play

BY INES DIAZ Staff Writer

Going into the season, Penn women’s soccer had all the talent, both young and returning, to be a strong force in conference.

However, the squad has lacked the consistency to be an Ivy threat.

The Red and Blue traveled to New Hampshire Saturday to take on Dartmouth — Penn looking for its second conference win; Dartmouth, for its first after three ties. The Quakers conceded two goals too many, losing the match 2-0.

Penn (5 - 5 -2 , 1-3 Iv y) came out firing on all cylinders, looking more aggressive than they have all year. Coach Darren Ambrose explained Penn’s newfound mentality.

“We changed our system because we’ve got so many injuries,” he said. “We changed the whole system at the last minute, and felt really good about it.”

“We were reasonably good on possession. We made Dartmouth chase it a little bit. We struggled in the final third, which we’ve

AT DARTMOUTH done all year.”

Dartmouth took the lead on a goal from junior Corey Delaney off a beautiful cross from sophomore Meredith Gur nee f rom the right side. The pass pierced through Penn’s scrambling defense and found Delaney for the goal in the 34th minute.

“We look like a good soccer team at times — all the aggressiveness, mentality, and competitiveness, but the fire that’s needed in the 18-yard box to defend and in the 18-yard box to score is what’s missing in this team right now,” Ambrose said.

Following the first goal, Penn’s aggression and control seemed to fade away.

The Big Green, unsatisfied with the one-goal lead, dominated possession and frustrated the Quakers, gleaning 10 fouls from the Red and Blue, double Dartmouth’s five.

The Red and Blue could never fully recover the pace or the fight with which they began the match, and Dartmouth never sat back SEE W. SOCCER PAGE 10

M. SOCCER | Quakers jump to a tie for 2nd after taking down Big Green

BY WILL AGATHIS Staff Writer With its back against the wall in a must-win Ivy League contest, Penn men’s soccer found a way to take down Dartmouth.

AT DARTMOUTH On Saturday, the Red and Blue scored two unanswered goals after going down by one on an early penalty kick for the 2-1 victory. The win boosted the Quakers (6-6, 2-1 Ivy) into a tie for second in the league, keeping them in the hunt for a

repeat Ivy title.

With so much motivation on Penn’s part, a fast start was imperative for the team. However, a handball by the Quakers in the seventh minute gave Dartmouth (7-4-1, 2-1) an early penalty kick which the Big Green capitalized on to take the early lead.

Coach Rudy Fuller was not happy with the decision by the referee.

“It was a generous call,” he said. “I give the team full credit for continuing to keep their head down and play through it.”

Both teams had several chances throughout the half until a corner from junior midfielder Forrest Clancy connected with freshman Sam Wancowicz right by the net, who was able to score his first goal of the season and tie the game for Penn.

“It was a very simple play but [was] executed very well,” Fuller said.

Overall, the first half saw a rather balanced match between the two squads. Neither team was able to take a commanding lead, which ultimately helped the Quakers in the second half, but Penn still let up plenty of chances to Dartmouth’s forwards.

“Dartmouth has a fantastic team,” Fuller said. “I think we’re a pretty good team so I think it was just a really good soccer game in the first half.
