PENN SUMMER - University of Pennsylvania

Your Room
Each air-conditioned room is equipped with one twin extra-long
bed, desk, desk chair, and dresser. Due to space constraints, any additional
furniture is discouraged. The following items are not provided:
sheets, pillows, blankets, towels, soap (laundry, dish, and bath), waste
basket, hamper, laundry bag or basket, hangers, alarm clock, surge
protector, telephone, or computer.
Having a room in the College Houses means automatic access to
more than 65 channels of cable television (including numerous foreign
language channels that serve Penn’s internationally savvy student
population).
Technology
Penn’s residential computing program is one of the most comprehensive
in the U.S. Every College House is linked to the Internet
via a high-speed network connection. Both wired and wireless connections
are available in all rooms ensuring that residents have highquality
Internet services. Internet access, email and everything else
that today’s technology has to offer is available from the comfort of
your room.
Most importantly, Penn’s commitment to technology doesn’t end
with providing a high speed network, but includes the dedicated service
of ITAs (computing assistants) available in designated College
House computer labs during published hours of operation.
Safety and Security
All University residences are equipped with 24-hour monitoring of
the building entrances. Access to residence buildings is permitted
when an individual presents a valid PennCard with magnetic strip and
PIN. Visitors are welcome, but a resident must sign them in and they
must be prepared to show an acceptable form of ID upon request.
Bon Appétit at Penn Dining
At Bon Appétit at Penn Dining, we believe food service on a college
campus serves a much larger purpose than simply sustenance. Dining
halls are gathering places. Breaking bread together helps to create a
sense of community and comfort. We recognize the important role
we fill at Penn and take great care to honor our position and demonstrate
our commitment every day by:
• Cooking food from scratch with fresh seasonal ingredients
• Serving a wide variety of menu items at each meal, every day
• Keeping things fresh, fun, and interesting
• Creating great tasting, authentic and nutritious food that exceeds
the expectations of vegetarian, vegan, and international diners
• Providing friendly customer service to create a warm, welcoming
environment
• Taking our role in the community seriously and making socially
responsible purchasing decisions from produce, meat, seafood,
eggs and coffee to disposable plates and serviceware
At the heart of our premier residential dining hall is a vibrant salad
bar featuring fresh, locally grown fruits and vegetables. For all the
comforts of home cooking, including vegetarian options, stop at
the Comforts Station. A grand pizza station offers pizza by the slice,
stromboli and calzones. Burgers and your favorite hot sandwiches can
be found at The Grill. For a summer time treat build your own ice
cream sundae. Fresh hot breakfast with eggs, home-fries and breakfast
meats is available weekdays and brunch on weekends. Serving
times are as follows:
Breakfast 7:30am–10:00am
Lunch 11:00am–1:30pm
Monday–Friday Saturday & Sunday
Brunch 11:00am–3:00pm
Dinner 4:30pm–7:00pm 4:30–7:00pm
In addition to serving great food and creating a welcoming environment
where students, faculty and staff come together in our residential
dining hall, Bon Appétit at Penn Dining also offers a variety of
amazing food at our retail locations.
