FOOTBALL | Penn wins longest game in Ivy football history in four overtimes

STEVEN TYDINGS

T

he old saying goes that a win is a win. But that was unbelievable. There are few words, if any, to describe Penn’s 37-31 FOUROVERTIME victory over Dartmouth, the longest game in Ivy League history. “It feels like we should be going out there for a fifth overtime,” Dartmouth linebacker Michael Runger said. There was a missed field goal that would have won the game for the Big Green. And then another. And then the same kicker — Riley Lyons — missed a field goal in the fourth overtime to set up Penn’s win. Penn’s starting running back went down with an injury, and the third-string running back — junior Kyle Wilcox — emerged as a hero, taking Penn’s carries at the end of regulation and overtime before finishing the game with a game-winning 20-yard touchdown run. “Seeing Kyle turn the corner was a great feeling for sure,” senior quarterback Billy Ragone said. “At first, I was saying, ‘What the heck are you doing going outside?’ but he got SEE TYDINGS PAGE 8

BY IAN WENIK Sports Editor When Dalyn Williams spiked the ball and pointed to the sky in celebration, he thought the win was all but in the bag. The Dartmouth sophomore had led the Big Green down the field as time ticked away, leaving his special teams unit with a chip shot of a field goal, a 21-yarder to nail through the uprights for the lead and the win. But senior linebacker David Park had other plans. “We got a really good push up front,” Park said. “And I saw a lane, and I saw an opening and just took off.” Park blocked junior Riley Lyons’ field goal and miraculously pushed the game into one extra session. But it would take four overtimes for this one to come to an end. In the longest game in Ivy football history, juSEE FOOTBALL PAGE 8 Isabella Gong/Staff Photographer

Fifth-year senior running back Brandon Colavita was part of a rushing attack that racked up 218 yards on the ground on 50 carries. But Colavita left the game with a knee injury in the third quarter, allowing junior running back Kyle Wilcox to pick up the slack. Wilcox rushed for 94 yards on 18 carries, all of which came in the fourth quarter and overtime.

Wharton misrepresented, Deafness not a disability, says former MBA director but an identity for Hu The WSJ recently claimed Wharton is on the decline due to a dip in MBA application numbers BY SARA SCHONFELD Senior Staff Writer As former MBA Director of Admissions Thomas Caleel sees it, when others — such as the Wall Street Journal

— try to label Wharton, they represent it incorrectly. “They like to pigeonhole Wharton as a finance school, and it means so much more,” Caleel said. “[Wharton is] so much more diverse and complex than that.” Si nce M BA Di r ect or of Admissions Ankur Kumar’s sudden decision to leave the University last week and a WSJ article in late September

She’s adamant about the terminology — she is deaf, not hearing impaired. “I’ve never thought of deaf culture as a disability,” she says. “Deaf culture is an actual culture … it means you recognize deafness as an identity and not a disability.” Being deaf certainly has not stopped Sophia.

Penn Political Coalition launches nonpartisan fund The $7,500 fund, in the works for about two years, aims to keep Penn’s political scene vibrant BY LIANNA SERKO Staff Writer Raising nonpartisan political capital is never a quick process. For the Penn Political Coalition, accomplishing this goal took about two years. PoCo, the umbrella organization for political student groups founded in January 2012, will be launching a $7,500 fund for policy and politics-related programming on campus that the group says is necessary to ensure that Penn has

Four MBA directors left since 2000 MBA from page 1 sions Maryellen Lamb has since taken over the post. As of press time, Kumar had not responded to multiple requests for comment. When asked of his thoughts on Kumar’s departure, Caleel, who held the position from 2005 to 2008, said he himself approached the position as a job with an expiration date. “[There was a] very clear understanding that I would stay for three years,” he said, so there was “no surprise when I left.” Kumar’s decision to leave the position after holding it from 2011 to 2013 makes her the fourth director to leave Wharton since 2000.

a vibrant political scene. The fund will be overseen by the 12-member PoCo “Synergy Committee,” some members of which are representatives from member groups and some of which are on the PoCo board. The f und, which was amassed through donations from Fox Leadership, Penn Wharton Public Policy Initiative and the Annenberg

Martinelli, Caleel and J. J. Cutler also have only held the position for only a few years. “This is not a decision I made impetuously,” Kumar said in last week’s email which announced her resignation from her job. Kumar said she had been looking for jobs in New York for the past several months. After three years as director, Caleel, a 1994 College graduate and 2003 Wharton MBA graduate, felt he was ready to return to his original passion: “Starting, building and financing great companies,” he said. “I felt I had done a lot [and] I had changed a lot w ith my team,” in those three years, he added. In his term as director, Caleel worked to increase the number of women enrolled in the MBA program from 32 percent to 35 percent, a number that Kumar was able to increase — 45 percent of the MBA class of 2013 were women.

School of Communication, will be available for allocation to PoCo-affiliated student groups or to other student groups who are co-sponsoring an event with an affiliate group. It is a nonpartisan effort to increase political discourse and will not be used to host events for campaigns or events to advocate for candidates of any type. PoCo co-chairs Sam Gersten, a College senior, and Urja Mittal, a College and Wharton senior, said the fund is the cornerstone of PoCo’s efforts to provide funding to political student groups and will only be used for political or policy

He went on to say that the school has been striving to recruit diverse classes across genders, nationalities and other criteria. The school also recruits from nonprof it orga nizations, the Peace Corps, Teach for America and the American military. Caleel credits Wharton with educating him not only about business, but also providing him with skills that have helped him found Toro Advisory Partners as a managing partner and launch the Gideon Hixon Education Technology Venture Fund. He said his time at Wharton was short, but meaningful. But Caleel does admit that Wharton may have an image problem.

events on campus. “The fund is a good way to move forward from the question of how to cultivate political life at Penn,” Mittal said. “It’s about how we can make it so that civic and political dialogue are kind of something we do on a regular basis, not just a reaction to it being election season every four years.” Gersten added, “it wasn’t just [PoCo], it was most people involved in political life on campus feeling that political life was not as vibrant or strong as it could be, and part of that reason was the limited ability to get funding.”

behind this funding cap. “The goal is that we should be able to fund at least 10 events per year,” Mittal said. “Because political events often gear towards speakers, and speakers’ honoraria can be very expensive, we don’t want to drain the fund with any one event.” Both Gersten and Mittal emphasized that the launch of the fund has been a collaborative effort. “All member groups have had a lot of input in to how the fund will be structured,” Mittal said. “It’s been a PoCo initiative, but it wasn’t achieved just by the PoCo board.”

Lecturer heads to court for open lewdness

last week in response to the WSJ, Wharton professor Adam Grant discussed how he sees the Wharton brand changing. In his post, “Wharton Has an Image Problem,” Grant stated that the school is about more than just finance. Takumi Kumagai, a first year in the MBA program, agrees. “I feel like Wharton is going through a transformation … What’s written in the Wall Street Journal is just a side effect of that.” According to Grant, the drop in MBA applications may ref lect the image of Wharton, not its reality. “W har ton means business,” Grant wrote in the blog post, citing that the school’s graduates are not only destined for work in c o n s u lt i n g , i n v e s t m e nt bank ing, venture capital and private equity firms, as well as technology companies and startups.

Adam Bund was allegedly looking at a 21-year-old female as he touched himself BY HARRY COOPERMAN Staff Writer A man who was a lecturer in Penn’s Anthropology Department will face trial on Thursday for alleged indecent exposure in Houston Hall. Adam Bund, who was arrested on May 23 for two separate offenses, will face charges of indecent exposure, open lewdness and harassment, according to his court docket. According to the Philadelphia Police Department, a 21-year-old female reported that in February, Bund was looking in her direction while “inappropriately touching himself.” Bund also allegedly performed a similar action in late April, according to the PPD. Indecent exposure, the most severe charge against Bund, is a second-degree misdemeanor

Mittal agreed. “It’s very difficult to ask groups to hold more events if they don’t have the resources to do it,” she said. As of the launch event, groups will be able to start submitting applications to receive money from the Synergy Committee and its new fund. The limit for funding is $750 per year per group, and will continue to be allocated as 10 percent of the total fund money as the fund grows. If the fund grows to $10,000, the limit of funding per year per group will grow with it to $1,000. Mittal explained the logic

that is defined as when a person exposes his or her genitals in any public place or in any place where others are present. A guilty verdict has a maximum two-year prison sentence. Open lewdness is a third-degree misdemeanor, defined as when a person “does any lewd act which he knows is likely to be observed by others who would be affronted or alarmed.” Harassment is also a third-degree misdemeanor if it includes “lewd, lascivious, threatening or obscene words.” Both third-degree misdemeanors are punishable with a fine of up to $5,000 and imprisonment of not more than 90 days. The University was not immediately able to provide information as to Bund’s current employment status at Penn.

Series brings together celebs, social impact

Organizer Bobby Turner explains his choice of Kutcher for the social impact speaker series BY TVISI RAVI Staff Writer Ashton Kutcher may be better known as Kelso on “That ‘70s Show" or Walden Schmidt on “Two and a Half Men” than someone for social impact. Today, Kutcher is coming to Penn as the speaker for the Lauren and Bobby Turner Social Impact Executive Speaker Series. The event, to be held in the Annenberg Center’s Zellerbach Theatre, will feature a conversation with Kutcher on the subject of social impact and philanthropy. Bobby Turner, a 1984 Wharton graduate, explains his choice. He understands that Kutcher is one of the biggest celebrities in the media today, but he also wants students to understand that Kutcher is much more than an actor — he’s a philanthropist. The event was originally scheduled for Sept. 18, but Kutcher had to postpone it due to the death of his rabbi. Though the series’ name includes social impact, Turner said he purposefully brings in those who are non-traditional names in the field to draw in students who may not otherwise be interested in social impact. In the past, Turner has brought in celebrities — like Eva Longoria, Andre Agassi and Earvin “Magic” Johnson — to Wharton. They have “a huge influence on the next generation of Americans,” he said. Turner said that Kutcher does have social impact ventures. Kutcher, for example, has investments in several technology startups. He is also involved

with Thorn, an international human trafficking organization that he founded with Demi Moore. Turner started the series five years ago with a mission to bring high profile speakers to Penn in order to “raise awareness and empower the student body” to make an impact, he said. When Turner himself graduated from Wharton in 1984, he graduated knowing how to create wealth. However, “I was misguided in my wisdom that with wealth comes happiness … And as a capitalist, I struggled for many years with how to make my wealth meaningful,” he said. He doesn’t want Wharton students to follow in that same path. 2013 Wharton graduate Kat Muller, who attended an event last year with actress Eva Longoria, said, “It’s great that [the Turner Speaker Series] brings celebrities. Even if people aren’t interested in social impact, they’re interested in the celebrity and end up learning more about the social impact.” Wharton junior Tiffany Agalaba registered to see Ashton Kutcher because, as she puts it, he’s “beautiful and famous.” “I don’t even know what he’s supposed to be talking about, but I don’t care,” Agalaba said. Turner said Kutcher is looking forward to speaking at Wharton. “He’s interested in bringing the world together and empowering people to be proactive through his investments,” he said.

Collaborative arts project hits Clark Park REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK | A DP reporter takes in the sights at the FIGMENT arts event Sunday BY LAUREN FEINER Contributing Writer Acrobats, love advice and a ton of art supplies — all of this and more could be found at FIGMENT, a participatory arts project launching its first event in Philadelphia this past Sunday at Clark Park. Explaining the origin of the event’s name, Executive Producer David Koren said “figment” was the one word pop artist Andy Warhol wanted engraved on his tombstone. “Warhol saw himself as a figment of our imagination,” Koren said. The idea behind this project is to create a collective artistic experience, and therefore, a “community ecosystem.” Around the time when I showed up, I was drawn into a large painted canvas surrounded by many people. The piece, titled “Blind Date,” invited anyone to contribute to a painting that would be taken with the artist, Stefanie Schairer, back to her native Germany. Schairer first conceived the project as a way to connect strangers to each other. Inspired by a current movement of artists who have come together to paint the

Philadelphia’s first FIGMENT project — a national volunteer organization bringing large-scale, public arts events to major cities — saw artists creating interactive puppet shows, collaborative paintings and ice sculptures that play music. Berlin Wall, Schairer hoped to create a space where people could unite in their differences and experiences. Each participant at FIGMENT “makes their own thing but also connects [them] to other objects,” she said. Later, as I kneeled in the grass of Clark Park, hunched over colorful swirls painted by participants who had come before me, I added my mark to Schairer’s canvas. On my way to paint my initials in red acrylic, a blob splattered from my brush onto a design left by a previous artist. I asked my mom, who was

In past years, the speaker series has attracted big na mes, i nclud i ng A nd r e Agassi, Magic Johnson, Ludacris and Eva Longoria. These speakers all have noble foundations and have drawn large crowds to their talks. But they have lacked one thing: a consistent focus on their actual social impact work. Students have noted their disappointment with previous speakers taking too much time to give the audience an autobiographical description of themselves and too little time speaking about their actual organizations. This is somewhat expected — it would be a little jarring

No ifs, ands or butts GUEST COLUMN BY MARISSA DECESARIS

his past weekend I was at a bar celebrating a friend from high school’s birthday and was having a great time until one of my guy friends slapped my butt. My first instinct was to try to kick him in the balls, which I did. Lucky for him, my aim was a bit off. For the rest of the night, he continued trying to slap my butt when I wasn’t paying attention, trying to make a game out of it. But I wasn’t playing. I wasn’t in the mood to make a scene at the bar, and I knew he was pretty drunk, so I did my best to avoid physical proximity to him until I left. The next day I got a text from him saying, “Sorry I touched your butt, it’s just nice.” I knew he was trying to be goofy and flirty and expected me to say something along the lines of “don’t worry about it” or “thanks for the compliment.” Instead, I told him that it was disrespectful to grab a girl’s

butt, and he needed to learn some self-control. He told me to relax. There’s something wrong with this picture. There is no excuse for slapping a girl’s ass in public, whether “it’s nice,” you’re drunk or you think she can take a joke. When a drunk guy grabs your ass on the dance floor at Smoke’s, it’s easy enough to ignore it and pretend it was accidental or to make a comment to your friends later about that creep who groped you (I too have been guilty of this in the past). But this just reinforces the mindset that this type of behavior is socially acceptable, and then it just becomes more commonplace. I don’t care if I’ve known you for five years or five seconds or whether you are or I am drunk, high or sober. It is not okay for you to slap, grab, grope, fondle or graze my butt in public. If you want to get my attention, try a nice shoulder tap or, God forbid, start a conversation. There have been several

to go to a talk by Kutcher in which he doesn’t mention his acting career. But it’s better to inspire us because of what you’re doing and why you’re doing it than because of who you are. It might not be easy for the average student to relate to big-shot careers or people who have millions to pump into new organizations, but it’s relatively easy to connect to why someone’s passionate about what they’re doing to give back. In this sense, we’d like to see not only big names at these events, but people whose lives have been defined more by their work on the ground than by what they did before giving back. We don’t need to completely throw out the star power or discount how influential celebrities who start their own organizations can be. In fact, actress Brittany Snow’s

talk this past spring proves it can be very impactful. What made Snow such an effective speaker, though, was her very personal dialogue behind why she started the Love is Louder campaign. Indeed, many found her to be extremely sincere and relatable. If the celebr it y is only marginally involved in social impact work, it can’t hurt to bring in a second speaker whose work revolves primarily around helping others. The second person could even be a very active member of the celebrity’s organization. This concept might not please the people who complained about Geoffrey Canada, the Commencement speaker two years ago, but it would really benefit the people who want to learn what they can do. We’re not complaining that

speakers like Longoria or Ludacris are invited to these events. Bobby Turner is right when he says that certain celebrities like Ashton Kutcher are “empowering people to be proactive through [their] investments.” That’s something Kutcher should rightfully be praised for, and we just want to hear more about that during these talks. It can be difficult to convince students who attend these events to give back in large ways. To do so, it can’t sound like giving back is a secondary thought. Ashton Kutcher may have recently t a ken on a bio graphical role in the movie “Jobs,” but that doesn’t mean we want to hear his life story when he comes to campus. Rather, we’d like him to take the famous words of the man he emulated — “Think differently” — and bring that attitude to this year’s event.

NEEDS A MENTAL REBOOT

steps toward eliminating “rape culture” lately, such as Philadelphia’s recent SlutWalk. Even if you’re not comfortable parading through Center City holding a sign that says “my pussy my choice,” you can still contribute to this movement. I’m not saying girls should go around kicking guys in the balls (my initial reaction might have been a bit overaggressive), but when a guy disrespects us by touching us without our permission, we need to let him know. Maybe he’s drunk and won’t remember, but maybe he will. Maybe another guy will see what happened and learn to respect women more. Maybe your girlfriends will see how strong you are and realize that they need to stand up for themselves too. And even if none of these happen, at least you’ll be wearing some self-respect for the rest of the night — and there’s nothing sexier than that. MARISSA DECESARIS is a Nursing senior.

Quarter-life crisis

WANDERING DELIBERATE LEE | Reflections on my ongoing quest to balance feeding my body and my soul

A

f ter my Boston Consulting Group i nt e r v i e w t h i s year, my interviewer told me I should work either in writing, teaching or entrepreneurship. Although I was pleased to receive gratuitous advice from a company that charges millions for its services, I still struggle to muster the courage to implement its recommendations. I came to Penn aspiring to be just that: an academic, entrepreneur or travel writer. Embodying Thoreau’s call to “live the life you imagined,” I’d just come off from a gap year in which I taught English in rural China, peddled Kenyan art at festivals in Spain and kept a journal as I backpacked around the globe. So on my first day of classes, I dropped out of the Management and Technolog y

program that I had deferred to read literature and philosophy that resonated with my soul. I sold textbooks with Wharton graduate student Josh Magarick and sold Chinese flower tea to food trucks in exchange for lunches. I spent my weekends writing my gap year travel book for a Korean publisher. I was happy. Just as how Marx wrote that one can “hunt in the morning, fish in the afternoon, rear cattle in the evening, criticize [literature] after dinner … without ever becoming a hunter, fisherman, herdsman or critic” in his ideal society, I thought I could make a living by freely engaging in my passions without needing a boss or business card. Four years later, after writing an unpublished travel essay about biking across

America and a few whimsical entrepreneurial ventures, I am gravitating toward the life others expect. I now find myself in consulting interviews, reciting how my education and internship experience in journalism have prepared me for business strategy. Have I become a sell-out? Perhaps. Or perhaps I simply grew up. I felt the weight of my family botanical garden and medicine businesses in dire need of management acumen. I learned that this “winnertake-all” capitalist society has very few niches for a bohemian jack-of-all-trades, and I needed to specialize in order to maintain my lifestyle. Because my doctor-inventor-entrepreneur–professorwriter father grew up with nothing and made millions while curing thousands, and I grew up with a silver spoon in my mouth, I thought I could

also get rich while doing good. Alas, I feel lost in his giant shadow now. While my family and friends urge me to follow my heart, they are also “schizophrenic,” telling me to be realistic and indenture myself now so that I can gain freedom later. Although Robert Frost “took the one [road] less traveled by / And that has made all the difference,” the road less traveled is a hungry one unless one can write like Frost. I do not know whether money first or passion first is the wiser move, but I’m encouraged by the various routes my peers have taken. Despite the hemorrhaging of jobs in journalism, 2013 College graduate Humna Bhojani is interning at The Nation, a left-leaning publication about politics and culture. Jacob Ga nt z , 2 01 2 Col lege a nd Wharton graduate, chose to

work at Palantir Technologies, a less-renowned startup which is now a billion-dollar software company credited with helping locate Osama bin Laden. After graduating from Wharton in 2012, Russell Trimmer hiked the entire 2,000-mile-long Appalachian Trail and is now working at a farm to learn more about food policy. Wharton MBA and Penn Law class of 2015 Andrew Towne had bartending, camp counseling and construction labor on his resume when he graduated from college. But he followed his calling for public service and went to D.C., joined the CIA and has since worked at Boston Consulting Group and Goldman Sachs. So where does that leave me and you? As I look forward to beginning my graduate studies next year, I feel like a freshman with infinite

School of rock: Where marketing, music combine Four Wharton professors find new application for marketing expertise in their own rock band BY SOPHIA TAREEN Contributing Writer Some of Wharton’s most talented faculty use their marketing skills on the stage as well as in the classroom. Marketing professors Americus Reed, David Bell, Robert Meyer and Keith Niedermeier formed their own rock band, “Brand Inequity,” about six years ago. Specializing in contemporary and “throwback” classics by such bands as the Rolling Stones, Oasis and Blink-182, the band’s genuine talent often surprises crowds skeptical of an all-professor rock band. The professors had been practicing together for some time as the “four P’s” — a nick-

name based off a key marketing concept — when one day, some MBA students caught wind of their jam sessions and invited them to perform at MBA pub nights. Following a successful performance at their first gig, the musicians started receiving more and more invitations not only to pub night shows but even to the annual Wharton Marketing Department Christmas party. Reed attributes part of the band’s success on stage to the marketing strategies that the members put to use when making their set list. Taking into account such factors as age range and crowd size, the professors apply their knowledge of market segmentation and targeting to decide which covers to perform. Solidifying their “brand identity” is also an important aspect of the band’s thought process during shows. In 2007, the same MBA stu-

dents who had first invited Brand Inequity to play at pub nights put on the World Cafe Live’s first Battle of the Bands, where the professors played as special guest performers. Tickets for this now-annual event sell out in minutes, and this year, the venue has been moved to the renowned Theatre of Living Arts to accommodate the crowds of up to 1,000 people. While the band, according to Reed, is very “tongue-incheek,” performances are nonetheless in high demand. This isn’t surprising, considering the musical experience of some of the band members. Niedermeier said he had played in “bar bands” from high school through graduate school, and even opened for acts like the Goo Goo Dolls. Before a performance, the band will practice intensely at Niedermeier’s house in West Philadelphia. Having come out

of retirement after his serious pursuit of music, Niedermeier said Brand Inequity is “mainly driven by demand from the students.” However, the band has also gained recognition from outside the Penn community. This summer, the American Marketing Association held its 2013 Summer Marketing Educators’ Conference in Boston, where Brand Inequity performed at a networking event. The Association for Consumer Research — an international organization that holds annual conferences to highlight and reward trailblazing consumer research — also invited Brand Inequity to perform at their North American Conference in Chicago this past weekend. The band played during a twohour grand finale presentation at the iconic House of Blues, a venue housing up to 1,300 people. Reed hopes that the band

what the future holds, the band is simply enjoying any and all opportunities to connect with the students outside the classroom.

Wharton sophomores help people create their perfect jeans The duo has already raised $10,000 for their fashion venture, looking for $15,000 more BY SAN LE Staff Writer The search for the perfect pair of jeans is over. Wharton sophomores Adina Luo and Molly Liu have started Black Box Denim, a new initiative to make it easier for people to find a pair of well-fitting jeans by ordering custom-made jeans online. They have currently accumulated over $10,000 towards their goal of $25,000 on Kickstarter. Luo and Liu can only move forward with their business plans if they meet this goal. The two have been planning the steps to execute their business plan since January. The original idea was to create custom-made handbags with high quality leather. The idea changed to denim when Luo and Liu realized that the quality of leather they were searching for was hard to match to their expectations. The pair then decided on denim because of the current “jean culture” that exists in the United States, where there is an obsession over finding the perfect fit, Luo said. For those who fall in between or outside the size range, Luo explains that Black Box Denim is the solution. According to their Kickstarter website, customers can quickly order well-fitting jeans without having to scour through multiple stores

or break the bank. Their jeans are $125 per pair. “They make the biggest size or the smallest size possible,” Luo said. Most jean sizes are standardized, but many women may be forced to either size up or down or even look elsewhere — depending on their body type. By offering custom-made jeans, Luo said that people could feel comfortable with the way they look. Black Box Denim promises high quality as well. The founders spent the summer in Guangzhou, China, where they visited three fabric markets to find the ideal fabric — one with the perfect stretch, strength and ability to hold in lasting color.

Liu and Luo have given clear instructions in the form of a video on how to take precise measurements as well as a breakdown of the fabrics, washes and styles that will be available from Black Box. “I like how they’ve made it dead-simple for the consumer to get the pair of jeans they want,” College and Wharton junior Max Wolff said in an email. “That kind of clarity is really important for people buying clothes online,” Wolff added. Luo and Liu emphasized that this project is not just another way to sell a product. By offering jeans custom made for any body type, “we’re also selling a positive body image,” Liu said.

Philadelphia Film Festival set to roll in the city In coincidental wink to the Year of Sound, Penn is sponsoring Sight and Soundtrack section BY JING RAN Staff Writer Over 100 reels will roll in 10 days, when films from 36 countries will be screened at seven unique Philadelphia venues, including in University City. In line with Penn’s “Year of Sound,” the University is sponsoring the Sight and Soundtrack section for the upcoming 22nd

annual Philadelphia Film Festival from Oct. 17 to Oct. 27. “We were actually not aware that Penn is hosting ‘Year of Sound’ when we decided to give them the section of Sight and Soundtrack,” Parinda Patel, managing director of the Philadelphia Film Society, said. “It was a funny coincidence.” The University has sponsored the festival over the past five years and worked closely with the Philadelphia Film Society, a nonprofit arts organization, to bring this city-wide festivity to West Philadelphia. As part of the Graveyard Shift

section, the festival will host a midnight horror movie screening on Oct. 18 and 19 at the Rave Cinema on 40th and Walnut streets. “Horror movies received very good responses among college students last year,” Patel said. The festival will also provide both discounted and free tickets to Penn students if some tickets still remain unsold. One of 12 festival categories, the Penn-sponsored Sight and Soundtrack section will feature “rockumentaries, musician biopics and films that are centered on the unifying power of music,”

according to the festival website. “There isn’t one central theme — I like this section because it’s very diverse,” Michael Lerman, artistic director of the society, said. “They are all musical films but very different from each other.” Movies in this section span from the comedic documentary “Great Hip Hop Hoax” — a film about two Scottish rappers reinventing themselves as West Coast Homeboys — to the Belgian drama film “The Broken Circle Breakdown,” which won the Audience Award at the Berlin Film Festival.

runs around and gets tackled on a field for four hours every week. “It’s awesome … I’ve always been fascinated with rugby since I was little,” she said. Her love of rugby doesn’t stem from winning games. “Rugby emphasizes a lot of teamwork … It’s amazing how whenever I’m down and I need someone to support me, I always have a teammate there behind me to help me.” However, there are some complications in playing rugby due to being deaf. “I have to be more visually aware. I can call out but they can’t call out to me.” Sophia is by definition, completely deaf. But she is able to hear at least partially, because she received a cochlear implant at age three. She then lip reads to match the sounds from the implant to words. It is an imperfect process, especially when there is a lot of ambient noise or when many people are

“The first and foremost criterion is always quality,” Lerman said. “We also spend a lot of time looking at what the audience in Philadelphia likes and responds to.” On Oct. 17, the festival will open with “All Is Lost,” at the Perelman Theatre in the Kimmel Center. It will also include five centerpiece screenings: “August: Osage County,” “Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom,” “Nebraska,” “Philomena" and “The Unknown Known.” Lerman said they have plenty of great topics and genres to offer for Penn students.

“We definitely took into account the responses of college students,” he said. “Penn has really intelligent kids with really diverse interests. I encourage anyone at Penn to pick up and look through the program guide to find what sounds interesting to them.”

speaking. This becomes clear as we join a few hallmates at the Night Market last week for bubble tea. The flurry of voices and loud music make conversation difficult, and we end up communicating through facial expressions, or in the end, inadvertently leaving Sophia out. Sophia’s sister Jennifer, a senior at Swarthmore College, describes this phenomenon as a subtle example of the “isolation in the hearing world” that deaf people face. Called “dinner party syndrome,” it occurs when a deaf person is interacting with a group of hearing people who do not sign, so the deaf person ends up “pretty much sitting and eating dinner alone.” The social aspect of interacting with other people can at times be difficult. Although Penn barely has a deaf culture, Sophia decided to attend Penn over the National Technical Institute for the Deaf at the Rochester Institute of Technology, which has a population of 1,269 undergraduates who are deaf. According to Sophia, there are two completely deaf undergraduates at Penn – her and her friend Connor McLauren, a College sophomore. “You can keep up academically, but not socially… I don’t

go to dances [or] parties much. If it’s a debate club I’ll never join that,” Sophia said. Penn also provides less romantic prospects, since according to her, “most deaf people tend to date other people in the deaf culture.” Connor agrees that the lack of deaf culture can be disappointing at times. “Sophia and I are pretty good friends … we have each other and that’s pretty much it.” However, he also sees his time at Penn as an opportunity. “I think Sophia and I are going to help educate people on deaf culture.” Sophia has experienced this lack of understanding of deaf culture in her life. She recalled an experience where a woman she met at a restaurant, upon learning that Sophia was deaf, immediately started shouting and using exaggerated hand motions to communicate. “I wish I could let them know deaf people are normal… I tell them to think of deaf people as foreigners who speak a different language.” But Sophia doesn’t let these experiences dishearten her. “There are things that are harder for me to do but I can still do them.” After a beat, she admits, “Of course, I can’t sing.”

Festivities included alumni open house and gala dinner Saturday, with distinguished keynote BY GLENN SHRUM General Assignments Editor This past week and weekend, the Philomathean Society — both Penn’s oldest student group and earliest literary society — celebrated 200 years on campus with a host of events, culminating in a ticketonly gala Saturday night. The week’s festivities began on Wednesday night with a performance of works by Johannes Brahms and Sergei Rachmaninov by the awardwinning Daedalus Quartet —the University’s “quartetin-residence” since 2006 — and Wharton seniors James Kwak and Radhika Mahidhara. The society held its bicentennial meeting Friday, a lead-up to the cornerstone of

the weekend’s celebrations the following Saturday. During the day, Philomathean Halls — located on the fourth floor of College Hall — opened to welcome alumni from as far back as the 1930s and 1940s. Later that night , Philo members and guests proceeded to Houston’s Hall of Flags for a gala dinner. Professor of History Emeritus Daniel Walker Howe of the University of California, Berkeley delivered a keynote speech for the occasion.

Dartmouth’s Riley Lyons had a game-winning FG blocked and missed two in OT. just played five or six.” And while Penn students spent the rest of the day saying goodbye to their families before enjoying the nightlife of Penn’s campus, it wasn’t a late night for Bagnoli. “If you’re a coach, you’re going to go bed early on either side because it was emotionally exhausting,” he said. Penn has seven games left, but I’ll venture to say this will be the most memorable. For those that saw it, experienced it and lived it, this game will not be forgotten.

While many entered the stadium thinking they would see just a regular Ivy League football game, they saw all of the magic, exuberance and exhaustion that can come from just one sporting event. In the end, this win wasn’t just a win. In this game, we saw the extraordinary.

The Quakers left footprints all over the turf, rushing for 218 yards on 50 carries after amassing only 20 yards on 30 carries against Villanova last week. Dartmouth wasn’t shy in its willingness to run the ball either. The Big Green ran for 242 yards on 45 carries on the backs of Williams and senior Dominick Pierre. Williams put up 77 yards on the ground, getting into the end zone once while Pierre gashed the Red and Blue for 151 yards, averaging 7.2 yards per carry. He didn’t have a rush for negative yards the entire day. In the first overtime, the Big Green gave Lyons a second chance to win the game after stuffing Ragone, setting him up for a 34-yard attempt. This time, Lyons hooked the kick left, setting the stage for Ragone’s heroics. Though both Loftus and Lyons converted field goals in the third overtime, Lyons missed his third field goal in the fourth overtime, a 42-yard attempt that had been significantly

complicated by Williams taking a sack on third and 16 and a personal foul that negated a touchdown run by Pierre. “Nobody feels worse than Riley does,” Teevens said. “But it’s a team sport.” Given the golden opportunity, the Quakers converted, using Wilcox’s outside speed to send the fans home happy. All the insanity went down without Penn’s top rusher and receiver. Senior wide receiver Conner Scott was spotted on crutches on the sidelines and is out for at least one week, while senior running back Brandon Colavita went down after hearing a pop in his knee in the third quarter and is due for an MRI on Monday after being carted off the field. After all of the emotional highs and lows of Saturday’s game, it is almost hard to believe that the Penn season is only three games old. “Is that all it is?” Bagnoli asked. “It feels like we’ve just played five or six.”

an unheralded one in Wilcox. While Wilcox was the story of the day on the ground (18 carries for 94 yards) with his 20-yard run to pay dirt around the right end that sent Franklin Field into a frenzy, Ragone found his legs again after rushing for only one yard on the season before Saturday. Ragone rushed for 62 yards on 13 attempts, none more important than a jaw-dropping 27yard scramble for a score on a third and 12 in the second overtime with Penn trailing, 28-21. The rush came after a touchdown pass from Dartmouth quarterback Dalyn Williams to Kirby Schoenthaler had given the Big Green the lead. Getting flushed from the pocket due to heavy Dartmouth pressure, Ragone found nothing but open field ahead of him as he headed down the right sideline after his team was stuffed on a fourth and one at the five-yard line in the first overtime. “It was nice to finally get a play with my feet,” he said. “First time all season.”

surd affair. But sometimes, you can’t come out of a win looking like a supermodel. “Somehow, we clawed and scraped and fought and battled,” Bagnoli said. “It wasn’t pretty. I said last time [against Lafayette] was not a Picasso, and today was not a Picasso.” What this means for Penn moving forward is anyone’s guess. The Red and Blue won the game without their top wide receiver, as Conner Scott spent the game on crutches. And with Brandon Colavita going down, the backfield situation seems murky despite the heroics of Kyle Wilcox down the stretch. But there will be time to think about William & Mary. For now, it is impossible not to just reflect upon the fact that in just the third game of Penn’s season, they played a game that will never be forgotten by the fans in attendance because it was one of the greatest football games they ever saw. When it was mentioned that it was only Penn’s third game, Bagnoli responded with exasperation. “Is that all that is?” Bagnoli bemoaned. “I feels like we’ve

The junior only carried the ball a few times for Penn before Saturday’s thriller. Wilcox stepped in for injured senior running back Brandon Colavita, who suffered a knee injury in the third quarter. Wilcox ran the ball 18 times for 94 yards and the gamewinning touchdown despite not having touched the ball in the first three quarters.

Play of the game: David Park’s FG block to send the game into OT With four seconds left, junior kicker Riley Lyons lined up for a 21-yard field goal attempt to win the game. But, senior LB David Park rushed through the left side of Dartmouth’s line to improbably block Lyons’ kick, sending the game into OT with no time remaining.

start. Behind their leadership, the Quakers delivered two shutouts at home, staving off a surging Cornell squad Friday night, 1-0, before routing Farleigh Dickinson 4-0 Sunday afternoon. The victories snapped a four-game winless streak, which included a loss to Harvard on the road. By defeating the Big Red (7-3-1, 1-1 Ivy), Penn (6-1-3, 1-1) kept its Ivy title hopes alive, since no squad has won the Ivy League with multiple conference losses in the past five seasons. The Quakers owe the weekend’s defensive efforts to the depth and continuity of their bench, which seamlessly handled the stress of injuries to two key defenders. And with 1:36 left in the first half, the Quakers caught a break when a Big Red defender was whistled for a handball in the penalty box. Senior forward Kerry Scalora put the penalty shot away with ease, and Penn entered halftime with a 1-0 lead. For the sixth time this season, one goal would be all the Quakers needed to notch a win. That said, a much-improved Cornell squad played Penn nearly even in virtually every statistical category, narrowly edging out the Red and Blue in shots eight to seven and corners five to four. Ultimately, one handball, a penalty shot and home-field advantage made the difference between two well-matched squads. “We don’t lose at home.

corners,” Fink said. For a stretch, the second half resembled the first, with Penn failing to take advantage of good offensive opportunities and Savage finding the net for a third time. The goal, which came 14 minutes into the second half and made Dartmouth’s advantage 4-2, was assisted by junior Janine Leger. Down two goals with 20 minutes remaining, Penn’s Grace Wu/DP File Photo chances looked bleak. But a familiar face rallied With a two-person advantage in overtime, junior attack Emily Corcoran notched the game-winning goal to finish off a 5-4 comeback over Dartmouth. the Quakers. With 10 minutes remaining, Penn finally cashed in on to the baseline and put the a picture of pure jubilation a corner, with Tilton scoring ball in perfect position for after their victory. off a pretty feed from veter- Tilton to score. “It’s an amazing feeling an senior Julie Tahan.

Senior forward Kerry Scalora posted the only goal in Penn’s 1-0 win over Cornell. The game-winning goal came off of a penalty kick late in the first half. That’s something we always stand for as a staple in our program,” Hammond said. Penn followed its performance against the Big Red by putting on a show for the Family Weekend home crowd against an overmatched Farleigh Dickinson (5-6-1) squad. The Quakers first broke through in the 26th minute when Barth lost her defender on the left side and sent the ball across the box. Junior forward Clara Midgley met the cross at the far post and slammed a volley past the goalkeeper for her first goal of the season. Sixteen minutes later, Shannon Hennessey followed suit when she converted a cross by Rano and logged the first goal of her Penn career, giving the Quakers a two-goal lead going into the half.

ued the offensive exhibition in the second half, as freshman Lindsey Sawczuk delivered a pass over the top of the Knights to a streaking Megan York, who scored for the second time this season and became just the second Penn player to record multiple goals on the year. In a final display of offensive prowess, sophomore Elissa Berdini put it away on the far post, bringing the Penn lead to 4-0. The performance was encouraging at both ends of the field for Penn, coming off of a two-week span that included a loss and three ties after starting out the season with four consecutive wins. “Being dominant isn’t enough. You still have to focus. You still have to assert yourselves in order to win a game,” Ambrose said. “You can’t just show up and go through the motions.”

THE BUZZ: THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE UGLY

Four OTs plus four FG misses equals history

FIELD HOCKEY | Penn beats the Big Green in overtime for the first time in six years to move to 3-0 in the Ivy League

BY MIKE TONY

BY SEAMUS POWERS Contributing Writer

From The Daily Pennsylvanian’s sports blog, THE BUZZ Four overtimes was plenty of time for a whole lot of good, bad and ugly for Penn and Dartmouth alike in their classic showdown Saturday. THE GOOD — Penn’s offense in the clutch The Quakers somehow always found an answer when they found themselves on the verge of losing. After fifth-year senior Billy Ragone was picked off deep in Penn’s own territory, resulting in a 26-yard Big Green touchdown drive, Penn responded instantly with a nineplay, 82-yard touchdown drive and added another nine-play, 70-yard drive midway through the second quarter to give the Quakers a 14-7 advantage. And on a crucial thirdand-12 from the 27-yard line in the second overtime with Penn trailing, 28-21, Ragone dashed for the scramble of his life down the right sideline, reaching paydirt for a game-tying touchdown. And when junior running back Kyle Wilcox smelled Big Green blood in the water after Dartmouth junior kicker Riley Lyons missed his third field goal, Wilcox’s 20-yard game-

vs. Dartmouth Thrilling, hard-fought, triumphant. Such was junior Emily Corcoran’s overtime game-winner, and such was Penn field hockey’s 5-4 victory over Ivy League foe Dartmouth Sunday afternoon at Ellen Vagelos Field. After two halves of back-and-forth action and four minutes of tension-filled overtime play, Corcoran finally put an end to the game with her eighth goal of the season. The team’s second-leading scorer split two defenders at the top of the circle, put a spin move on another and fired a low, net-seeking shot to give the Quakers (7-2, 3-0 Ivy) their best start in Ivy play since 1995. “[This win] is hugely significant because this team has never beaten Dartmouth,” coach Colleen Fink said. “I think that shows the direction the program is going in.” In a game that marked Penn field hockey’s first win over Dartmouth (3-6, 1-2) in six years, the numbers fail to tell the whole story. At halftime, Penn led Dartmouth 14-5 in shots — and 9-0 in corners — yet trailed 3-2. The first half featured plenty of action that got started early on. Each team struck within the first three minutes of the game. Big Green senior Maggie Scanlon scored first off an assist from fellow senior Sam Anderson. Penn freshman Jasmine Cole evened the game up 30 seconds later on a solo effort, swooping in from the right baseline. Dartmouth’s second and third goals of the contest came courtesy of standout junior Ali Savage. Her first came off a rebound seven minutes in, and her second came less than three minutes later on an impressive individual effort. Sandwiched between those two strikes was a Red and Blue goal from senior Sunny Stirewalt, her first of the season. The assist came from freshman Elise Tilton, who would contribute later in the contest. Penn generated more offensive pressure as the half went, including a string of corners heading into halftime, but wasn’t able to tie the game up. “There were a lot of missed opportunities on

Last sack before 4th OT sack that forced Dartmouth to kick a 42-yarder rather than a 36-yarder: 2:58 in second quarter Billy Ragone threw two picks on the day but still came out on top. The fifth-year senior’s last victory when also throwing two interceptions? Oct. 2, 2010 against Dartmouth.

winning touchdown jaunt in the fourth overtime sealed the deal. THE BAD — Penn’s defense in the clutch While the Quakers’ ‘D’ did come up big in the end, pushing Lyons out of his field goal range in the fourth overtime, Penn had given up too many potentially game-winning drives to the Big Green by that point. Penn allowed a devastating 58-yard run to Dartmouth senior running back Dominick Pierre that led to a game-tying touchdown for the Big Green early in the fourth quarter. And of course, it only took Dartmouth 1:21 after Penn senior kicker Connor Loftus missed a field goal to march down 62 yards in nine plays to set up what should have been a game-winning 21yard kick. The Quakers allowed backto-back 12-yard passing plays, which comprised another clutch touchdown drive for Dartmouth in the second overtime as well. THE UGLY – Dartmouth kicker Riley Lyons in the clutch It just doesn’t get any uglier. Lyons missed two field goals that would have clinched the game for Dartmouth and a third that would have kept the Big Green from losing at the end. As time expired in regulation, what should have been a chip shot from 21 yards out for Lyons became a nightmare, as senior linebacker David Park rushed the left side and blocked Lyons’ kick. And in the first overtime, he hooked a 34-yard field goal wide left that would have given Dartmouth the win.

HOW HISTORY WAS MADE

The game lasted 229 minutes total in real time.

WHAT PENN AVOIDED: Teams that win the Ivy Championship don’t generally lose their first Ivy game. Last time that happened was Harvard in 2008. The Crimson lost to Brown, 24-22, before rallying to take the Ivy crown.

David Park blocked the field goal to send the game into overtime. When Penn last blocked a kick last year at Princeton, it was Park who got his hand on the ball then too.

Penn shuts out defending Ivy champ Cornell Two shutouts and Ivy dream still alive M. SOCCER | Quakers win Ivy opener against the Big Red, notch first Ivy clean sheet since 2010 BY ALEXIS ZIEBELMAN Associate Sports Editor

The tables have turned. Coming off of a win against Drexel that snapped a sixgame losing streak, Penn surprised 2012 Ivy champion Cornell at Rhodes Field, 1-0. The Quakers (4-6, 1-0 Ivy) have already won more games than they racked up all of last season, when they went just 3-13 overall. The win marked Penn’s first clean sheet in Ivy play since 2010. And defending Ivy champion Cornell (6-2-2, 0-1) learned this weekend that Penn is not the same team it was a year ago. “They really kind of are a team that plays to one of our weaknesses … and I thought our guys stood tall and dealt with it really well and deserved to win,” coach Rudy Fuller said. The match lasted for 80 minutes without a score — both the Red and Blue and the Big Red had many opportunities, yet none proved successful. In the 81st minute, off of a corner kick from junior captain Duke Lacroix, senior defender

vs. Cornell

Jonny Dolezal posted the only goal of the match and his first of the season. “It’s great and the guy that got it — Jonny Dolezal — you can’t say enough about that kid,” Fuller said. “He’s a warrior. He’s a captain. He is one of the hardest working guys on our team.” For the entire game, Cornell outshot Penn, 14-7, but Quakers goalie Max Polkinhorne stood tall in the net, securing his second clean sheet of 2013 and his first ever in Ivy play. “It’s a dead heat with him and [senior goalkeeper Tyler Kinn],” Fuller said. “We feel very comfortable with either one of them in goal, and I think you will see that in the remainder of the season — you might see Max, you might see Tyler depending on form, health, whatever. “It was simply a case of … he got his shot against Drexel and we won the game so we wanted to ride that momentum.” However, Polkinhorne wasn’t the only change in the Red and Blue lineup. “There are a number of guys that weren’t regular starters,”

For Penn women’s soccer’s Lauren Hammond, this weekend was an opportunity more than a year in the making. Hammond was slated to start the first game of her college career in the Quakers’ season opener of 2012. Her fortunes changed suddenly, however, when she tore her ACL the day before the match. This weekend, starting center backs Claire Walker and Tahirih Nesmith didn’t play due to injuries of their own, and juniors Hammond and Haley Cooper filled their spots in the back line as Hammond finally made her first collegiate

Senior captain Jonny Dolezal recorded his first goal of the season against Cornell. Starting in almost every game, Dolezal is a key piece of the Quaker defense. Fuller said. “Mariano Gonzalez, Alex Reddy, Kamar SaintLouis, Matt Poplawski … got a start tonight because of how well they did Wednesday.” “You can rely on almost anyone on the team to come in and play their part, and I think that is really important going forward,” Dolezal said.
