Summer daze

---

On one of the last days of finals, our correspondent stepped onto campus to find out what amusements and employments Penn students have lined up for the summer months. With the bulk of finals behind them, the students seemed to walk more slowly, to smile more. The afternoon sun suffused Locust Walk with a lazy, partial light. Summer was definitely on its way.
