Benchmarks: Twenty-Five Year Club: New Members for 2015

Since 1956, Penn has celebrated a rite of passage each year for faculty and staff of all ranks who meet only one common requisite: they have been members of the University community for 25 years. Another 231 new members crossed the 25-year mark in 2015 and will be welcomed at the University of Pennsylvania annual 25-Year Club celebration on October 1. New Bolton Center will have a separate celebration on October 29.

At the 25-Year Club Annual Lecture—preceding the October 1 celebration—Jeffrey Rosen, professor at George Washington University School of Law and president & CEO of the National Constitution Center, will give a talk on The Future of the Constitution. Dr. Rosen’s talk will begin at 3:30 p.m. on the second floor of Houston Hall in the Class of ’49 Auditorium and is open to the Penn community. His lecture is sponsored by the Penn Association of Senior and Emeritus Faculty (PASEF).
