I assume this means they've upgraded since my days in Dietrich Hall.
Funny. WG '84 here. Wharton/Penn were not well run operations in my time there. Campus was beat and often unsafe. Decent professors but limited job placements help especially on the West Coast.
I'm W'79. When you arrived, the campus had been gussied up a lot since my first year. I actually preferred the old campus. I grew up in NJ, spending a lot of time in Manhattan in the 60s and 70s. Philly seemed quite civilized by comparison. I used to go all over at all over at all hours on foot and bicycle, including the semi-annual Walnut Walk. Loved the cheap steak and brew places near campus. However, the school itself was not much help (except for the financial aid office).
