Kennedy Blvd., Suite 411 Philadelphia, PA 19102 215.988.1707 | campusphilly.org Dear Colleagues, The more we work with students, colleges and universities, corporate partners and communities, the more extraordinary we realize this region is. Because of Campus Philly, all of these varied partners come together to welcome, integrate and retain our region’s college students. Greater Philadelphia is the only metropolitan area in the country that accomplishes this kind of collaboration, and it’s one among many reasons our region is thriving. • Job growth is up 2.8%, higher than the national average and our large neighbor 90-minutes to the north. • 67% of current college students report that they want to stay in Greater Philadelphia after graduating. • 4,895 college students actively pursued 923 internships and entry-level jobs posted on campusphilly.org/launch. When we meet freshmen on campus, they’re not necessarily thinking about post-graduation job opportunities, so we have a few semesters to get them to fall in love with Philadelphia first. From CollegeFest to Open Arts to our Student Leader Network, we introduce students to a city and region that is uniquely accessible, welcoming and vibrant. In the report that follows, we share the impact of these programs over the past year. For those of you who have participated and partnered with us, we thank you. And we look forward to even greater impact in the year ahead.

  • Should I Stay Or Should I Go?” the Answer Will Be a No-Brainer
    L ShouldShould II staystay oror shouldshould II go?go? Survey of Recent College Graduates A Knowledge Industry Partnership Report - June, 2004 Four years ago, Greater Philadelphia drew a line in the sand: “Success in the new economy will be increasingly concentrated in those regions with the right combination of smart people and good ideas. It is crucial that Greater Philadelphia be well positioned to capitalize and build upon its existing base of knowl- edge assets.” —Greater Philadelphia’s Knowledge Industry: Leveraging the Region’s Colleges and Universities in the New Economy (2000) We would like to thank the following colleges and universities for their participation in this survey: Arcadia University Immaculata University Temple University Bryn Mawr College La Salle University The University of the Arts Cabrini College Lincoln University Thomas Jefferson University Chestnut Hill College Manor College University of Pennsylvania Community College of Philadelphia Moore College of Art and Design University of the Sciences in Philadelphia Delaware Valley College Penn State-Abington Valley Forge Christian College Drexel University Pennyslvania Academy of the Fine Arts Villanova University Gwynedd-Mercy College Rosemont College West Chester University Harcum College Saint Joseph's University Widener University Haverford College Swarthmore College Photography in this report was provided by University of Pennsylvania, Bob Krist, Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation and James Wasserman With the release of its Knowledge Industry Report in 2000, The Pennsylvania Economy League took a close look at the impact Greater Philadelphia’s impressive mix of colleges and universities has on the region. or Students The report concluded that while Philadelphia’s 83 colleges and universities are indeed economic engines, and our 300,000 enrolled students represent a potential talent stream to rival any major metro, we are not among the top-tier of knowledge industry regions—and in fact are being closely tailed by a set of up-and-coming regions.
