I have this space to write whatever I want every week.
This is a luxury that I don't value enough.
Writing and reading is everything.
As the Editor–in–Chief of Street and an English major
with a creative writing concentration, writing and reading constitute the principles of my existence. I always tell
Rebecca and Dani, our Features Editors, "The worst thing
is for a Street feature to go unnoticed."
In our position, with the captive Penn audience, it's our
responsibility to write dangerously because no one else is
saying it.
I believe that writing can also be theraputic. Sharing
personal narratives is the way to find companionship and
remedy the loneliness that led you to write in the first
place.

STREET
THE CONSEQUENCES OF ACTION
MICHAEL COYNE
“T
hey’re just like any other kids; they’re just
your students for the day.” That’s what I
would tell myself as a freshman volunteer working
with kids in West Philly. Looking back, I couldn’t
have been more naive.
Two years ago I started volunteering as a
teacher for a student–run
nonprofit called ACTION
(Active Cross–Cultural Training in our Neighborhoods),
an organization teaching
basic Spanish in underfunded Philadelphia public
schools where students lack
access to consistent foreign
language or cultural education. I’ve continued to teach
with ACTION and became
a member of the executive
board—since then, I’ve come to realize that the
kids I teach aren’t just any other kids.
Let me clarify, children in West Philly aren’t
abnormal, they aren’t monolithically “at risk”—
the kind of buzzword verbiage I used to buy into.
The kids I teach in West Philadelphia are energetic, smart, moody and adorable. They're smiles,
fits, excitement—everything that children are. Yet,
they can't be just any other children to me, or I
risk recklessly hurting them.
I risk hurting them because if I ignored who
they are, if I were color–blind or blind to class, I
would be ignoring my relationship to them as a
white, male, Ivy League student doing social impact work in a historically oppressed community.
When I volunteer, I am not just me, and they are
not just them. Our interaction
is loving, but it's still an interaction fraught with politics. I'm
still privileged beyond belief,
and they're still oppressed by
the system that’s supposed to be
teaching them.
What I’ve come to realize is
that I don’t get to pick up and
put down my privilege; I carry
it around with me all day, every
day. My race, my class, my
gender identity, my education:
It’s always there. I used to think it faded into the
background when I was volunteering. At the very
least, I hoped that I was using my privilege to
empower. Instead, I wore it
as an armor that shielded me
from having to come to terms
with what I was doing wrong.
Weighed down in my own
ignorance I stumbled into Lea
Elementary and thought that
because, as a Penn student, I
was taking interest in addressing an issue in West Philly, I
had “gotten it.”
At the same time I thought I was doing
the right thing, I was complicit in
taking cabs and Ubers to the
schools where we we taught.
I whipped my iPhone out
to remind myself of the
curriculum one too many
times. I spoke about college
like it was a given. I brought
constant reminders of what our
kids may not have.
To be sure, we brought smiles and
Spanish too. Yet, when we went home,
some of us—and undoubtedly many others on
campus—used language like “at risk” or “underprivileged” because, well, that phrasing made our
work sound more noble without considering the
When I volunteer, I
am not just me, and
they are not just
them. Our interaction is loving, but it
is still an interaction
fraught with politics.

"At risk." "Underprivileged."
Why the way we describe
West Philadelphia students
is wrong—and what we can
do to change it.
possibilities of subtle linguistic racism. ACTION
is undoubtedly dedicated to our kids, but the
work isn’t about our kids. Our work addresses
systemic inequality in education funding; the issue is money, not elementary schoolers. Imagine if
they ever read that they were “at risk,” imagine the
kind of sucker–punch to their self–esteem it could
be. Imagine how it could insult their parents.
As Penn students, we all have something to
offer—especially to a community so close to us.
We also have, however, the privilege of ease. Helping West Philly is too often framed as apolitical
charity. We’re helping people, great! And that’s
admirable, but not when we ignore the context.
Engaging with West Philly is something we know
we should do, but we aren’t always forced to think
about how we should go about it. Just because
we’ve burst the Penn bubble doesn’t mean we’ve
championed West Philly. If my experiences have
taught me anything, it's that being Penn students—compounding any other privilege—often
lets us, and has certainly let me, masquerade as
“saviors” when the latent externalities of our work have the
potential to wreak havoc.
In the past, we haven’t fully
realized how to frame our mission when we “aimed to empower
‘at risk’ students,” and I’ll speak
for myself when I say that I
didn’t have the right mindset. We
were doing good, but we weren’t
always doing a good job of it.
However, I’m proud to say that ACTION has
taken important steps to better understand how
our work can be most effective. Our sensitivity
and awareness initiatives aim to push our organization to think about the implications of everything we do; ACTION now actively discusses
and trains our members and executive board to
recognize the politics of our work and our relationship to West Philly.
In short, yes, sometimes Penn students get
caught up. We can be careless and insensitive, but
we can get better. We just can’t be unaware about
how we help others.
For ACTION, our kids might not be just any
other kids, but they’re not “at risk” anymore.
We were
doing good, but we
weren’t always
doing a good job
of it.

THE ~SCANDALOUS~ SIDE OF SKIMMERFEST
SkimmerFest wasn’t always fun and games and AlunaGeorge. The Penn tradition we're celebrating this Saturday has a
shady past, and Street did some digging through the University archives to uncover its dirty little secrets.
Created in 1949, SkimmerFest (then called “Skimmer Day” or just “Skimmer”) was an attempt from Penn to regenerate student interest in crew by
honoring its head coach, Rusty Callow. The event was a huge success and continued to be celebrated throughout the years, but it a caused a series of
mishaps in the '50s and '60s. Thanks to images and records from the University Archives, Street uncovered the scandalous side of SkimmerFest.
• 1955: Celebration of Penn varsity
crew’s regatta victory over Princeton and
Columbia got a little too raucous, and a
“Rowbottom,” a student riot, broke out
at the corner of 39th and Spruce streets.
About 700 Penn students, 50 policemen
and a six–piece jazz band were involved
in the three–hour commotion, which was
centered around two fraternity houses,
SAE and DKE. The students stalled six
trolley lines by removing their poles from
the overhead wires. They also let air out
of car tires and threw beer bottles at police, injuring several people. By the time
the riot died down, 44 boys and one girl
were arrested.
• 1958: Disturbances similar to the one
in 1955 took place over the next few
years, and, finally, the Fairmount Park
Commission prohibited alcohol in the
Ste
Chickaek,
Shrim n,
Grillepd &
Vegeta
bles
park. The Undergraduate Council tried
moving the regatta to the University's
Valley Forge property along the Schuylkill
River, thinking that Penn would allow
alcohol as long as its use was consistent
with University regulations. The plan was
unsuccessful because Penn had just leased
that property to a farmer.
•1959: In the fall of 1958, the Penn
administration cancelled Skimmer after
Fairmount Park Commission insistence.
• 1963: Skimmer coincided with the
Penn Relays as well as Hey Day, and
police and security were no match for the
students at the races on the Schuylkill, at
the Franklin Field concerts or the usual
debauchery at fraternity houses. Fifty
students jumped into the river to compete with the four–man canoes, and a car
was dumped into the stream. Back on
campus, more cars were overturned, fist
fights broke out and gasoline was poured
onto the unused trolley tracks on Locust
Street, which were set aflame. University
administration banned all future events
as a result.
• 1964: In response to the administration, students held an independent and
peaceful Skimmer. They called it "Remmiks" (Skimmer spelled backwards).
• 1965: In an attempt to control alcohol
and behavior, the men's student government proposed a "no–beer–in–the–hand
Franklin Field lawn" version of Skimmer.
The members promised Penn administration that they would run Skimmer
weekend with better control. The administration went along with this proposal,
adding a disclaimer that the University
had no connection with any of the activi-
ties held at the river.
• 1973: After several years of less
enthusiastic celebrations, Skimmer was
officially replaced by Spring Fling. The
tradition faded into obscurity over the
next 38 years.
• 2011: In a stunning turn of events, the
class boards of 2013 and 2014 revived the
long–lost tradition of Skimmer in September. Their new intention was to make
it a celebration of the start of the athletic
season, specifically the football team’s
first home game. Since then, Class Board
has held the event on College Green and
Penn Park with a series of food, games
and guest performers, and students have
found yet another reason to darty. Happy
SkimmerFest!

JOHANNA MATT
COBAIN: MONTAGE

WHAT HAPPENED,
MISS SIMONE?
This documentary explores
the life of Nirvana lead singer
Kurt Cobain, who, to this day,
remains one of the most iconic
figures in rock history. Through
the unique lens of Cobain’s personal journals, recordings and
art, this film offers a uniquely
intimate view of his whirlwind,
decade–long music career.
What Happened, Miss Simone? illuminates the
social dynamics of a particularly racially tense
period and many of the obstacles artists of color
have faced.
Watch if: You only just found out about Nina
Simone through Lana del Rey's cover of "Don't
Let Me Be Misunderstood." Also because watching this movie is as close as procrastination gets to
an actual history lesson.

because of midterms, watch this heart–wrenching
documentary covering one of our favorite English
soul and rhythm singers. Chronicling Amy Winehouse’s journey from her young beginnings to her
celebrity and untimely death, this film is both
tasteful and deeply moving. It's not Netflix yet,
but consider this something to look forward to.

MUSIC
Kenn Kweder and
Mark Teague are
early for their regular Tuesday
night gig. Sitting across from
us at Smokes’, they are as
much of a staple here as the
bar itself. Laughs ensue and
pitchers of beer flow as they
regale us with tales of being
thrown out of shows, growing
up with the rock ‘n’ roll “cool
cats” and philosophical advice.
The Street Seven:
Entertainment's new
Q&A column where we
ask your favorite artists
seven hot questions.
Street: When did Smokes’
Tuesdays become “Kweder
Tuesdays,” and how did you
meet?
Marc Teague: Kenny's been a
very popular musician in this
area since the 1970s (1977, to
be precise), so I knew of him.
I was walking down a street in
1986 on Bainbridge Street and
he stopped me. Then I played
here on and off nights every
other Tuesday and he [Kweder]
was playing the Tuesdays after
that. And after a year or two,
the guys I was playing with
didn't want to do it anymore
so Mr. Ryan (Ed. note: He's the
one rejecting your fake.) recommended Kweder. We started
that Tuesday and have been
doing it ever since.
Street: What were your
dreams of being rock stars,
and how did this passion for
rock ‘n’ roll start?
Kenn Kweder: By the time
I was 22, I was convinced I
would be world famous. I
mean, I had no doubt about it
in my mind. This went on for
years…a long time. I think
I finally gave up on it at 37
when I didn’t have hit records.
MT: I started playing music
when I was seven. When I
serving
Philadelphia
for over
was fourteen, I wanted to be
a drummer and set up boxes
up in my room and started
playing them. And my mom
made me take guitar since it
was quieter, and that was it. I
always had dreams of making
it big. That dream never dies,
but it does slowly go away.
Street: What memory from
Smokes’ stands out to you
the most?
MT: Well I hate to tell this
one, but it’s his 50th birthday.
That always sticks out to me
because we had just started
playing, and I’m waiting for
him to come in. He comes in,
sort of walking in, and that’s
the first time I had seen him
like that here. He gets up,
starts singing, and does four
songs and then puts his guitar
down, falls down on the stage
and just lays there. He pulls
himself back on a booth and
then just sits there for an hour.
He got up, someone took him
out of here and went home
and doesn’t remember any of
it. With Kenny, you won’t ever
know what you’ll get with him.
Street: If you were stuck on
a desert island, which five
musical experiences do you
take with you?
KK: Highway 61 [Revisited],
Blonde on Blonde, Trout Mask
Replica, Ziggy Stardust, Roger
25
years!

you’d just write one or two
stanzas. Where do you get the
inspiration for that stuff?
KK: I was drinking. I mean, I
grew up studying the beatnik
poets, y'know so, Kerouac and
all those guys….
MT: He’s a great storyteller,
Street: So how do you guys
too.

KK: I mean, I hung out with
with your covers now and
Tom Waits and was always

MT: It’s funny here because
who were really into words,
most of the kids here don’t
wanna hear any of that modern y'know, building—buildings
stuff, they wanna hear us play with words, and my mother
Zeppelin. What we started out was also very much into poetry.
So I was always kind of like

FILM & TV'S GUIDE TO
MOVIES HOMEWORK
FOR
It's like the ever trustworthy Penn Course Review, but not at all trustworthy or like Penn Course Review.
It's officially October, so you know what that means! It's time to get ready for Advanced Registration or, in other words, spending hours looking for the absolute perfect classes for which you
will, without a doubt, stop doing the readings after the first week. Let Film & TV aid your search:
Read these movie–focused (or –complemented) course recommendations, and put your education
in the hands of our contributors, aka unqualified strangers.
EMILY HASON
"Freshman Seminar: Katharine Hepburn Films" (CINE 015): "My favorite Hepburn film
we watched all semester was Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner. That movie was the most socially
controversial, which of course made it more interesting. The movie is about interracial marriage,
which, at the time, was very rare, but it tied in well with recent headlines about gay marriage. I
enjoyed the class’s seminar format because we spoke about the films and reading very informally,
and it was also a really small group of students. Taught by [Professor Suhnne] Ahn, the class
really focused on teaching us how to write about film, so it was a great beginner class for cinema
studies students."
—Georgia Breit (SAS '18)
"Italian History on Screen" (ITAL 204): “This course
takes students through the beginnings of the Roman
Empire to present day through Italian films. Each week
we were assigned a different film to watch on a specific era
in Italian history as well as a short (seriously, it was really
short) reading in a 'textbook.' Watching the films (they
were in Italian but had English subtitles) really helped to
learn the subject matter, and I would recommend this class
to anyone with an interest in film or history. Also, to be
totally honest, it filled the Arts & Letters Sector and Cross
Cultural Analysis Foundational Approach, so it certainly
has its perks.”
—Sophomore (SAS '18)
"Introduction to Screenwriting" (ENGL 116): "Besides
the fact that you get to learn how to write a script, which
in itself is amazing, the writing of scripts coincides with the
reading of scripts and watching of films. With movies like
Little Miss Sunshine, Goodwill Hunting, The Godfather
and Rocky, the class was an opportunity to watch all of
those films that old people (my parents) rave about that I
had never seen. Not only did I walk away with the creation
of an original screenplay but also an eclectic and elitist palate of movies that I could talk about.”
—Sophomore (SAS '18)
"Introduction to Feminist Theory" (GSWS/ENGL
096): "For my 'Introduction
to Feminist Theory' class
last semester with Professor Melissa Sanchez, we had
to write a paper based on
a movie and a scholar we
studied in class. I saw the
movie Philadelphia on the
list and decided to go with it,
since I heard scenes had been
filmed on Penn's campus
in Fisher Fine Arts library.
After triple–checking that
my headphones were plugged
into my computer, I actually
sat and watched the film in
Fisher. It was pretty cool to
be sitting among the tables I
was watching Denzel Washington and Tom Hanks
studying at on my laptop
screen."
—Chloe Shakin (SAS '18)
"Introduction to Film, Forms and Contexts"
(COMM 240/CINE 203): "As one of my favorite
classes I have taken during my Penn experience, this
communications and cinema studies cross–listed course
can be broken down into 50–percent of listening to
professor Paul Messaris tell relevant stories and absolutely riveting introductions for the other 50–percent of
the class, which is watching informative and entertaining
film clips. Not one moment goes by that I am not thoroughly enjoying learning about the ins and outs of the
Hollywood and global film industries, and thus I would
definitely recommend this class to any Penn student.”
—Emily Hason (SAS '18)
"Luso–Brazialian Visual Arts" (LALS/PRTG 240):
“We watched a lot of films like City of God, Mortu Nega
and Cinco Vezes Na Favela. It gives you a lot of perspective of Brazilian culture. But it also talks about other
countries colonized by Portugal, like Angola and Mozambique. I took the class before studying abroad in Brazil
and it helped me prepare a lot for the culture shock but
also understand the role of the Portuguese colonization in
a larger context.”
—Nya Wilkins (SAS '16)
"Introduction to British Cinema" (ENGL 295):
"This is an awesome class that focuses in on the different
aspects and eras of British Cinema including: Heritage
(like old stuff), Bollywood and Social Realism. There
is definitely something for every type of movie lover:
Pride and Prejudice for those who love romance, The
Fully Monty for those who love dramadies, Billy Elliot
for those who love musicals, This is England for lovers
of coming of age films, Slumdog Millionaire for any
human and Bend It Like Beckham for the girls who just
want to relive their youth. It was interesting to be able to
compare the British film industry with the Hollywood
film industry and to recognize how long and big of an
influence British film has had on present day film.”

THE BEST HANGOVER CURES
FOOD & DRINK
We asked upperclassmen how they deal with hangovers. Here is the wisdom from the Penn elders.
Pre–Med Girl: As soon as you get home from your wild
night on the town, drink 16 mL H2O. Add two Emergen–
C packets to another 16 mL H2O; drink that. Set alarm for
4am. Wake up at 4am, drink at least another 16 mL H2O.
Wake up, feel great.
Street: 16 mL is like nothing.
Pre–Med Girl: Oh, what are water bottles in? (Ed Note:
interview conducted in lab.)
The Ambitious One:
Hangover run. Start right when
you wake up and when you're
still drunk/haven’t really realized you're running 'til halfway
through. Then it hits, but you’re
already on the run, so you keep
going. By the time you finish,
the hangover is gone and you
feel accomplished because, let’s
be real, wallowing in a hangover
makes it worse.
BBBoy: Vitamin water
to replenish and a tuna
salad sandwich. Just makes
me feel healthy, probably
a placebo. If it’s really bad,
drink a beer or two.
Mom–In–Training:
Before I go out I set up
a little drunk kit on my
nightstand for when I get
back—peanut butter and
honey sandwich, giant
water bottle, Advil. Then I
have chicken noodle soup
for breakfast which is the
CURE for hangovers.
SWUG: Pedialyte and
weed…does that count?
Advice from real people experts:
Native Philadelphian: Benjamin
Franklin said it best, "By
failing to prepare, you are
preparing to fail." Chug
Gatorade the night before,
and make sure you have
enough tree.
The Purist: Chicken
and rice from the legit guy
now at 41st and Walnut
streets, but formerly holding down the 38th and
Walnut streets corner.
The Whole Nine
Yards: First, smoking
a lot of pot usually helps,
it makes me feel less
nauseous. I also eat a lot
of bananas and drink coconut water as well, then
take a cold shower and
pop a couple Advils. Then
I listen to uplifting music,
preferably Pharell and/or
T–Swift. I collect as much
evidence/stories as possible
from friends. Sometimes
I hear good things. But
usually bad.
Honest Tom: Shit,
shower, eat a tiny bit, TV,
do something productive.
SWUB: An Illadelph
bong rip and a homemade
omelet.
Philly’s Best Wings!
A study from Thomas Jefferson University in Philly
showed that non–steroidal anti–inflammatory drugs (Aspirin and Advil, NOT Tylenol) alleviate the headache pain
of hangovers and caffeine blocks receptors that cause fatigue
and malaise.
downing honey in the morning will cure your headache, a
spoonful or two before bed could do the trick.
ethnic groups in South Africa. If you’re really desperate, give
it a shot and let us know how that works out for you.
Scientists say it so it’s real: Darker liquors give you
worse hangovers than clear ones. But since it has to do
with the substances present and produced during fermentation or added during production, your flavored vodka
might not be doing you too many favors.
Lastly, as twelfth century poet John of Milan wrote in the
Regimen sanitatis Salernitanum, “If you develop a hangover
from drinking at night/Drink again in the morning; it
will be your best medicine.”
Great Service!
In a surprising turn of events, apparently dead stinkbugs are a widely known hangover cure among certain
28 beers on tap
Chinese researchers found that honey can reduce

But if you only do one art–related thing over the break,
go to the Barnes Foundation. Even if you’ve been before.
Even if you are from Paris or Barcelona and think you’ve
seen enough Picasso to last a lifetime (no such thing). Like
most museums that stand in the shadow of those that appear
on postcards, the Barnes is the best museum in the city. It
displays an incredible collection in a unique and short–attention–span–friendly way. You’ll see what I mean when you get
there.

meth. This gallon–sized Starbucks
milkshake will set you back $54.75
and make your barista cry. Just what
goes into this caffeinated monstrosity? Sixty shots of expresso, three
kinds of drizzle, protein powder,
pumpkin spice, chocolate milk,
whipped cream, two bananas and
eight strawberries. It's what all the
cool betches are drinking this fall.

WHY LEAVES REALLY CHANGE COLOR
Ever wonder why the leaves turn magical, often
clashing colors in the Fall? Think it's biology? Think
again.
As you're walking down Locust this week, one thing’s apparent—the leaves are changing color!
What a miracle of fall. The
Pope must have brought it
with him. But why do they
change color? Most people
think it’s biological; the chlorophyll breaks down so more
colors other than green become
visible. This all seems great and
true, until you really think
about it. Why would any color
want to change? Nobody likes
change. (Ed. note: You’re right. I
hate pennies.)
Just like every holiday and
season, fall is made to be commercial. Do you see pictures
of leaves changing color from
200 AD? NO. The first record
we have of this appeared in the
ad for Sherwin William’s paint
in 1866. Ever since, colored
leaves have slowly steeped into
daily life. Why would they do
that? To sell more paint.
When the leaves change
color, so do the color combinations of windows and the
leaves outside of them. While
you're busy eating your Frosted Flakes every morning, pixies hired by Sherwin Williams
come and paint each leaf new
shades such as Squash Bisque,
Rustic Melon and Yale Kale.
Thus, when you’re crying by
the window, the clashing wall
color/leaf color bothers you.
Immediately you feel compelled to change the colors of
your wall accordingly.
Lowbrow has become curious about the origin of this
phenomenon so we reached
out to Henry Sherwin’s grandmother’s great–grandson’s cat.
With a definitive meow, we
confirmed this creative scheme
to change the struggling business model of Sherwin and his
business partner William's new
venture.
But how do we celebrate this
phenomenon while still punishing Sherwin William’s creative scheme? The only answer
is to buy Martha Stewart paint
exclusively at Michael’s.
