What are people
saying about Stouffer?
- "There’s always something happening, whether it’s social gatherings, study sessions, or community activities, which help create a welcoming and active environment."
- "It is easy to connect with people since you see them so often and the lounges are a great place to connect. The RAs and Stouffer events are always nice since I may be doing a new activity like ice skating or going to a haunted house."
- We encourage collaboration and engagement by targeting the students’ holistic selves, through hosting house-wide, and multi-house-wide programs, and through smaller daily interactions and intentional decorations throughout the halls. We prepare our residents for life outside of the Penn bubble through hosting informational events, urging our residents to take an active role in house engagement decisions through our student-led house governance, and facilitating excursions to go explore the Greater Philadelphia communities.
- Our size, our spirit, and our commitment to ensuring everyone can see pieces of themselves reflecting in what we do and how we show up for one another.
