• Looking for Roommate My name is Susannah Maurer, and I will be starting a PhD program in the History of Art at the University of Pennsylvania this fall. I am hoping to find a Christian roommate (or roommates), and I’d prefer to live fairly close to campus in West Philly (the high end of my rent budget is $700/month). I’m female, 30 years old, single, non-smoking, and am generally pretty quiet and neat. Please feel free to e-mail me at susannah.maurer@gmail.com if you would be interested in rooming together and/or if you have more questions about me. Thanks!
