Last month I wrote about a fantastic new Penn sponsored entertainment internship program called RealArts. This program awards six paid ($2500!) summer internships - at MTV Networks, Rolling Stone magazine, Brooklyn Films, Shore Fire Media, Grand Central Publishing (former Warner Books), and Women Make Movies.
Today Penn announced the winners of this internship program!

Today, Penn President Amy Gutmann introduced President Bill Clinton at the “Kerner Plus 40” Symposium in Irvine Auditorium.
Per Penn's press release:"Sponsored by Penn’s Center for Africana Studies and Annenberg School for Communication and by the Institute for Advanced Journalism Studies at North Carolina A&T University, “Kerner Plus 40” marks the 40th anniversary of the 1968 report issued by the National Advisory Commission on Civil Disorders, known as the Kerner Commission. The Commission was formed to assess the causes of race riots that occurred in U.S. cities during the 1960s. The Commission’s most chilling words came in its assessment that the nation was 'moving toward two societies, one black, one white -- separate and unequal.'"Click here to watch a highlight video from Clinton's speech today

I was just checking Google's new "Street View" option for Penn's Spruce Street and was dismayed to see this!
Do you see the empty lot next to Allegros pizza? (Click on the image above to get a better view.)
That lot used to be where (my fraternity) AEPi (3940 Spruce Street) once resided.
Apparently, a cracked water pipe caused so much destruction that the whole house had to be knocked down! I hear that the fraternity is now on Walnut Street (near 40th). (current AEPi guys, feel free to comment below)
To take a brief trip down memory lane, check out my 1993 pictures below of the AEPi house during our annual "Hollywood" party. Every year we'd plaster the quad with flyers, rent lights out front and canvas the entire first floor of the house with B-rated movie posters we'd get from that video place on Locust (whose name I'm forgetting). You'll also note the "Hollywood" marquee and ticket booth.
Nothing like "themed" fraternity parties.

Tara in above photo taken while on assignment for Glamour in Chad. Over the past year, I've covered many stories about Penn actors, filmmakers, and musicians and now it's time to showcase another talented Penn international photographer whose beautiful work has appeared in many worldwide publications.
Based in the Middle East, Tara Todras-Whitehill (C'00, Eng'00, Stimulus Children's Theater) is a photographer who lived in Cairo for the past 2 1/2 years and just recently got a job with the Associated Press in Jerusalem where she'll be covering Israel, the West Bank and Gaza. Her journey from undergrad to professional world photographer is quite an interesting one (she's a quite the jetsetter!). Check out all the publications her photos have appeared in!
Tara has posted some really stunning photos on DT that you should take a look at...
Click here to see these photos Tara took for Glamour Magazine and New York Times Travel ...including portraits of Benazir Bhutto in her home in Dubai plus more!
