The Mason on Chestnut, an off-campus residence near Penn’s campus, has faced management changes, failed inspections, and resident dissatisfaction since 2020, when development company CSC acquired and renovated what was formerly International House Philadelphia.

University leadership correctly recognized that the recent encampment protest placed many members of the Penn community “under threat.” Reading now how the story is trying to be twisted through mental gymnastics is dangerous, not only to the community members who have been under threat but also to the students who are being led to believe that breaking the law is acceptable. Reading statements from the Penn chapter of the American Association of University Professors throughout the year — as well as their press conference that paid so much attention to the police who cleared the encampment, and no attention to how we got there — is a remarkable interpretation of the facts of the case, and especially breathtaking from scholars who claim to have expertise in critical thinking. Professors, to me, are individuals whom students should look up to as those who search for the truth. But, reading statement after statement throughout the year, disappointingly, it seems that the truth for AAUP-Penn is full of misstatements and highly biased interpretations.

My time at The Daily Pennsylvanian taught me an important lesson about the communities we’re a part of and why we pour so much of ourselves into the spaces we inhabit.

When I say that I’m a double major and double minor, it sounds like a carefully planned achievement. But what truly brings me joy is not the accomplishment that’ll go on my transcript. It’s what I explain after listing my areas of study: that they came about because I went where curiosity led me.

I remember the day I was admitted to Penn like it was yesterday (off the waitlist, I might add). I was home in China due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was four days before my high school graduation on Zoom. I breathed a sigh of relief as the sense of certainty settled in: I was finally going to have a normal college experience.
