Campus Philly sees a region that has more resources and resilience than it did when the organization was forming in 2000. It’s a region Campus Philly is committed to continuing to build and grow in the years ahead. 4 PHILADELPHIA RENAISSANCE SPONSORS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Campus Philly recognizes the following Campus Philly could not achieve its mission without the sponsors for their support for this study.

    2018 GREATER PHILADELPHIA COLLEGE RANKINGS CRITERIA AFFORDABILITY GRADUATION & RETENTION SOCIAL MOBILITY CLASS SIZE Michael Clark M.P.A. OVERVIEW We have learned that the best correlation for individuals to earn family sustainable wages is either a higher education degree or a vocational certificate tied directly to a trade[1]. Without a higher education degree or vocational certificate, we have learned that individuals are often “stuck” in the cycle of poverty[2] due to the fact that if they successfully increase their earning potential their public benefit subsidies decrease at the same rate thereby keeping them poor. In a recent study,[3] we learned that in order to move out of poverty an individual with dependents needs to earn the equivalent of $22-$25 per hour. Yet, persons earning between minimum wage and $22-$25 per hour for the most part continue to be impoverished because as their wages increase their public subsidies decrease. Once a person earns above $22-$25/hour they can transition from being reliant on the system to becoming an independent contributor to society. Upon researching jobs that pay $22-$25 per hour we learned that most require a higher education degree or vocational certificate[4]. WHY COLLEGE RANKINGS Understanding the above facts, we concluded that one of the most effective and sustainab le models to address poverty is by helping individuals obtain a college degree. However, given that most impoverished or low-income individuals experience significant barriers to attending college[5] we ranked Greater Philadelphia’s Colleges based on criteria that most impact low-income individuals' access to higher education including: affordability; social mobility; graduation/retention; and class size.

    January 25, 2017 Senator Robert P. Casey, Jr. 2000 Market St., #1870 Philadelphia, PA 19103 Senator Pat Toomey 8 Penn Center 1628 John F Kennedy Blvd #1702 Philadelphia, PA 19103 Dear Senators Casey and Toomey, As presidents of Pennsylvania colleges and universities, we write to urge your co- sponsorship of the Bar Removal of Individuals Who Dream and Grow Our Economy (or BRIDGE) Act, introduced by Senators Durbin and Graham. We feel strongly that this bi- partisan legislation offers appropriate protection to hundreds of thousands of young people who strengthen our nation by pursuing educational and employment opportunities currently allowed by the DACA program. Among those supported by DACA are students who are thriving on our campuses, making significant contributions to our educational missions while preparing to advance our state's and our country's economic and social well- being. The BRIDGE Act therefore represents a noble and pragmatic expression of our national interest toward which we Pennsylvanians are passionately dedicated. Your co- sponsorship of this bill will send a powerful signal to our constituencies, the Senate, and the country that Pennsylvania stands behind those who work hard to improve society and supports a judicious approach to immigration status. Respectfully, Dr. Lex O. McMillan, III; Albright College Dr. James H. Mullen, Jr.; Allegheny College Dr, Thomas F. Flynn; Alvernia University Dr, Robert R. Johnson; The American College of Financial Services Dr. Nicolette Christensen; Arcadia University Dr. Kimberly E. Cassidy; Bryn Mawr College Dr. John C. Bravman; Bucknell University Dr. Donald B. Taylor; Cabrini University Dr, Suzanne K. Mellon; Carlow University Dr.
