Building the Penn Community

Event Description

Penn is more than a univerity—it’s a community that values citizenship, inclusion, respect, and thoughtful communication. In this session, the four Undergraduate Deans – Rob Ghrist, Diana Robertson, Julie Sochalski, and Peter Struck – Sigal Ben-Porath and others from the Paideia program, University Chaplain Chaz Howard, Rabbi Gabe Greenberg, and other members of our community including returning students will offer perspectives on what our community is all about, countering hate and growing through our differences, and supporting ourselves and each other. Penn ID is required for entry.
