On Friday, April 19, the Penn community gathered to celebrate the monumental success of Making History: The Campaign for Penn. We invite you to continue this celebration with Time to Shine On the Road, a dynamic multimedia program in which President Amy Gutmann takes you into the heart and soul of the University and reveals the transformative power of Penn's Making History Campaign. Thank all of you, near and far, who helped strengthen Penn and our future, and we invite you to visit the Final Report website to learn more about the Campaign’s sweeping impact. Thanks to you, it is truly our time to shine.
There are many ways to uphold a lifelong commitment to Penn and its ideals, as the diverse biographies and accomplishments of the alumni award recipients honored at the 78th Annual Alumni Award of Merit Gala prove. The black-tie event, held the Friday of Homecoming Weekend at the Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts, welcomed more than 300 alumni and guests in celebration of the honorees’ unwavering commitment to Penn and its missions.
