[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]By UPenn do you mean the school in Philadelphia often called simply Penn? [/quote] I think you know the answer to that. But there are too many out there on the internet who would confuse "Penn" with Penn State. Better to head the confusion off at the pass by adding the U in front.[/quote] Penn is the registered trademark of the university and is on all the stationery. The school's style guide says that Penn is the officially sanctioned term, but the website is upenn.edu and UPenn is permissible when necessary to distinguish it from other schools in the commonwealth. If you're snooty (old alumni, humanities faculty), staff or a current undergraduate, you use Penn, in part because UPenn sounds like a public school. Among grad students, especially international students in the professional schools, and high schoolers it's either/or. https://thepenngazette.com/penn-v-upenn/[/quote]
