FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

This is now: Notebook party!

No, I'm not suggesting that you throw a party to celebrate another semester of filling marble copybooks with notes. The Notebook I'm referring to is the annual Campus Philly Notebook, as pictured below, which most of you will find on your campus. (If your school doesn't have any, shoot me an e-mail and I'll personally send one to you.) We here at Campus Philly put together this handy-dandy Notebook of the city's most college-friendly restaurants, music venues, stores, community resources, outdoor activities, religious institutions, and stuff-to-do. If I do say so myself, the end product is an invaluable resource for navigating the city. Tonight, we're celebrating it at World Cafe Live with our sponsors. That's right, a book party--very Carrie Bradshaw from Sex and the City. So, while I'm off to party, you should enjoy the fruits of our labor and spend some time exploring the city!
