Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.

Penn Admissions Blog

Today, the University of Pennsylvania announced admission decisions for Regular Decision applicants to the Class of 2028 across Penn's four undergraduate schools: the College of Arts & Sciences, the School of Engineering and Applied Science, the Wharton School, and the School of Nursing. These remarkable students will comprise Penn's 272nd undergraduate class.

Penn received more than 65,000 applicants this year—the largest first-year applicant pool in its history—with students admitted through QuestBridge Match, Early Decision, and Regular Decision. This year’s admitted students represent one of the largest cohorts from the city of Philadelphia, along with students coming from 109 countries and all 50 states, plus Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, the Marshall Islands, and the military APO.

This year's admitted class embodies Penn's tradition of academic and personal excellence across many dimensions. Through their applications, students shared intellectual pursuits already underway and those they hope to undertake with Penn's faculty and with each other when they arrive in the fall. They also described how they contribute to their communities, whether through caring for family members, leading clubs, starting organizations, or acting as connectors among friends.

For the second time, as part of Penn's application process, every student also wrote a thank-you note to someone in their lives, sharing inspiring encounters, relationships, and observations that impacted them and filled them with gratitude.

Each of these students exemplifies a unique combination of academic excellence, determination, curiosity, and joy. The Penn community cannot wait for them to meet each other when they arrive in the fall. Hurrah, hurrah for the Class of 2028, and welcome to Penn!

I’ve worked in college admissions for over 30 years, and I focus on building bridges between what ‘has been’ and what ‘can be’ so that the whole process can become less complicated yet still effective for students to find their way into college.  I especially love meeting new students when they arrive each year because it’s so fun to match them to the stories and information that we know from their applications!

I love coffee, running, snacking all day, and laughing.  I also adore dogs.  I spend a lot of time with my nutty English Bulldog, Stella, and I can be very easily distracted by silly dog memes. My favorite location on Penn's campus is the entire stretch of Locust Walk, and I love authentic Philly cheesesteaks. You can reach me at [email protected] .

WGS 84 coordinate reference system is the latest revision of the World Geodetic System, which is used in mapping and navigation, including GPS satellite navigation system (the Global Positioning System).

Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude) define a position on the Earth’s surface. Coordinates are angular units. The canonical form of latitude and longitude representation uses degrees (°), minutes (′), and seconds (″). GPS systems widely use coordinates in degrees and decimal minutes, or in decimal degrees.

Latitude varies from −90° to 90°. The latitude of the Equator is 0°; the latitude of the South Pole is −90°; the latitude of the North Pole is 90°. Positive latitude values correspond to the geographic locations north of the Equator (abbrev. N). Negative latitude values correspond to the geographic locations south of the Equator (abbrev. S).

Longitude is counted from the prime meridian ( IERS Reference Meridian for WGS 84) and varies from −180° to 180°. Positive longitude values correspond to the geographic locations east of the prime meridian (abbrev. E). Negative longitude values correspond to the geographic locations west of the prime meridian (abbrev. W).

UTM or Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system divides the Earth’s surface into 60 longitudinal zones. The coordinates of a location within each zone are defined as a planar coordinate pair related to the intersection of the equator and the zone’s central meridian, and measured in meters.

Elevation above sea level is a measure of a geographic location’s height. We are using the global digital elevation model GTOPO30 .

2024 empowHER Leadership Retreat is a Transformative Experience

The empowHER Leadership Retreat takes place Saturday, April 20, 8:30 a.m.-3:30 p.m. at Breslin Student Events Center! Registration closes Wednesday, April 20. The retreat costs just $25. Register here !

This is not just an event — it’s a transformative experience! In response to the evolving social landscape and the increasing influence of social media on girls' lives, empowHER is strategically designed to combat bullying, enhance self-confidence and create a lasting sense of community.   The empowHER Leadership Retreat was created to provide fourth- through ninth-grade girls with the tools to find confidence, passion and purpose in their lives.

With support and education in our interactive workshops, empowHER girls learn to embrace their strengths and differences, build their self-confidence, and participate in service projects that demonstrate the importance of giving back to the community.

“EmpowHER is important because it provides an important message to young girls about the importance of resilience and community-building. It’s messaging like this that helps to counter the pressures girls are facing while simultaneously engaging college students and community volunteers in building a network of support,” said Dr. Heather Shae, Director of Women*s Student Services.

To keep the participant cost accessible at $25, empowHER relies on support from donors. The all-in cost of $170 per girl covers speakers' fees, supplies, marketing and more, maximizing the impact of the day for the girls. 

Together, let's create a world where every girl knows she is not alone—where she can confidently embrace her true self, seek help when needed, and thrive within a supportive community.

Past volunteers have shared how fulfilling the experience is and the overwhelming sense of gratitude in being able to help potentially change the trajectory of so many young women’s lives!
