Rubio (R-Fla.) asked the Small Business Administration to review a Lieber-connected grant program.
Around the Ivies Dartmouth An employee of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center tested positive for coronavirus, the first positive case in the state of New Hampshire, per The Dartmouth. The employee recently returned from Italy and is in isolation at their home while experiencing “mild symptoms.” The case is considered “presumptive positive” until the Centers for Disease Control officially validates the test. The Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center released a statement that said the hospital is safe, there was no exposure to patients, and there is “no on-going risk to patients.”
Penn
Penn Dems co-hosted an event with Michael Bloomberg’s Pennsylvania campaign on Friday though they have not endorsed a candidate, according to the Daily Pennsylvanian. Bloomberg — the former mayor of New York City and candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination — announced his candidacy in November 2019. The event featured fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi and Philadelphia city councilman Mark Squilla, who spoke on Bloomberg’s behalf. A crowd of about 30 locals, Bloomberg staffers, and a few members of Penn Dems attended the event.

Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass, in the Democratic presidential primary. Specifically, 38.8 percent of respondents listed Sanders as their top-choice candidates, while 22.6 percent listed Warren. The same poll showed that 88.2 percent of students who self-identified as conservative” felt either “somewhat” or “very” judged on campus for their beliefs. The paper received 578 responses — about 11 percent of the undergraduate student body — to a poll conducted via Google Forms. The poll ran from Feb. 24 to Feb. 28.
