SRC and Campus Recreation makes a difference tutoring at K.I.P.P.

Over the course of the past year students from the Student Recreational Committee and Campus Recreation decided to step up and make a difference in the community. More important, they wanted to make a lasting impact not just a one day volunteering event. After hours of deliberating they decided to implement a tutoring program. Through various contacts they were able to build a relationship with K.I.P.P. West Philadelphia. On a weekly basis 6 students traveled to 60th and Baltimore to tutor inner city 5th graders. This program was such a huge success that they have decided to make this program...

Club Soccer vs. Penn

"A Promising Future" by Shane Chanpimol, Team Manager, Captain, 2nd Year DPT Student

"A Promising Future" by Shane Chanpimol, Team Manager, Captain, 2nd Year DPT Student The USP Club Soccer team started its career with a challenging first season. However, even in the face of adverse obstacles and a rough losing streak the players, coaches, and supporters are extremely eager to start the Fall 2010 season. Without a legitimate field and regulation sized goals practices were limited to the recreational gym within the ARC and the confined space of the quad.
