Penn Lingo & Landmarks
You may be walking through Penn’s campus questioning what all those weird terms and acronyms uttered amongst students and faculty actually mean. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered with all the Penn lingo & landmarks to make sure you fit in right from the start!
Lingo
SABS
Bring Your Own (Booze) BYO means bring your own alcohol. Many restaurants and on-campus events are BYO, so be on the lookout for that!
See And Be Seen This can be used as an adjective or verb to describe someone who wants to be seen by the Penn community. You’ll find them sitting in popular spots around campus, like the tables outside ARCH or on the benches outside Harnwell.
CAPS
The DP
BYO

DPS
Division of Public Safety Penn’s safety division. These are the people who send you a text when a crime happens near you!
GSR
Group Study Room You can find study rooms in most buildings around campus, such as Van Pelt Library. Most are open to all Penn students, except the ones in Huntsman and the Wharton Academic Research Building, which are only for Wharton students. You can reserve a GSR through Penn Mobile.
MERT(ed)
Medical Emergency Response Team (aka our local guardian angels). The MERT team is a group of student EMTs who respond to emergency calls on campus. Usually, this happens when someone is so incapacitated that they can’t move on their own. You’ll probably hear, “[insert name] just got MERT(ed)” during your time at Penn.

Stommons
DRL
