University of Pennsylvania
I am currently enrolled as a student in the University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education. I am an elementary education major (working with students in grades K-8), with the intent of becoming a teacher in the School District of Philadelphia, following my graduation in May 2005. Here are some interesting Penn-related links:

Daily Pennsylvanian - Student-run daily newspaper

Penn Live Journal Community

PennPortal - A comprehensive website containing links to Blackboard (a resource tool for teachers to share information with their students); Penn InTouch (a website providing financial aid information and academic history); the University of Pennsylvania Libraries home page; and many more helpful Penn-related websites.
