Why You Want to Work There
This school's home turf -- University City -- is one of the most famous communities in Philadelphia. Comprising universities and research hospitals, the community is anchored by Penn, the city's largest private employer. The school contributes to the community by spearheading environmental projects, serving locally grown foods, inviting senior citizens to attend classes, working with local schools and, with Philadelphia's newly elected mayor, revitalizing neighborhoods. The school has its own museums, green fields, regional rail station, sports teams, newspaper and retail stores. Campus activities include Penn Walkers, a group with 1,645 employee lunchtime walkers, and a campuswide fundraising celebration.
