It Makes It All Worth While

Last week a Penn alum randomly emailed me and told me he shared my DT site with one of his friends who graduated in 1995. His friend emailed him back with the following …and I couldn’t have asked for a more meaningful quote:

“I got all misty-eyed looking at the Dueling Tampons site. I mean it gave me sense memory of Penn… of the Walk when it was cold, or being in McNeill with Abiel, or being in German class, or taking 20 extra minutes to get to class because of the crowded Walk, or people that sat in my classes that are now really famous or important… just a great site”
-Chris Hartwell, C’95

And then, this past weekend, Joan, another Penn alum, IMed me on facebook with the following:

“Just want to thank you for all you are doing re: DT. You’ve reenergized my feelings toward Penn and now I have a son who plans on applying to Penn”
-Joan

As I approach year 2 with DT, please continue to let me know about your stories and what new and exciting features you would like me to promote! Thank you!
