In addition to that, preparations for all sorts of different on campus functions have been underway and we look forward to seeing all of you. Classes are in their second week and already I can feel the steam they are picking up. For a Masters student in Educational Leadership, days seem to be flying by as we approach the April deadline. all the best to all of you and hope to see you around soon.

Back to School

Well the semester seems to be heading off to a good start! The weather is great, students are excited, and the courses are all fresh of the roaster! I've been told my many Philadelphians that it usually gets to be much colder than it is already at now, so much for global warming I guess. As I mentioned in previous posts the start of the semester usually includes numerous activities for students, many of which are for free. Well Friday night was a little special for many in of our psych majors as HBO debut its new show in-Treatment at Houston Hall two weeks before it’s broadcasted nationally. The show is 30 minutes long, takes place at a psychiatrists office, and is very interesting is all that I would say. It was a wonderful event with plenty of free food, drinks, and most importantly an edge over many non Penn students that have wait two more weeks before watching it! Yes I have to admit it feels good to be able to brag about events like this to friends of mine back home. As for GSE, we are having plenty of events this semester for our prospective students that will take place starting end of January and all the way until end of April. We do look forward to seeing all of you and wish you a wonderful year. All the best from Philadelphia. Your GSE newscaster/entertainment/ and fellow students, Signing off.
