Founded at a time when undergraduate students were given little say in their own education, SCUE was the !rst organization to challenge this notion and blazed a trail for countless other student groups to bring about change. From the beginning, SCUE White Papers have provided a vision for advancing undergraduate education. Now, on the semi- centennial of our founding, we look back at our accomplishments and are proud of how far the University has come. Despite many great successes, the work for reform is never complete. In SCUE’s !rst White Paper, published in 1966, our founders put forth two calls to action. One was to the faculty and administration; the other was to the students.

  • Student Leadership Awards Class of 2021 a Message from the Penn Alumni President
    STUDENT LEADERSHIP AWARDS CLASS OF 2021 A MESSAGE FROM THE PENN ALUMNI PRESIDENT ANN NOLAN REESE Penn Alumni President Congratulations, seniors! It is with tremendous Red and Blue pride that I write to you from my home in Rye, New York, to applaud your success in earning a degree from the University of Pennsylvania. It has been 47 years since my own graduation, and much more recently that I watched two of my children complete their time at Penn. You have already accomplished so much— and many of you are honored here as Student Leadership Award recipients—Hurrah! Hurrah! As individuals, you have brought something uniquely “you” to Penn. But as a group, you share qualities like compassion, conviction, and confidence. I’m excited for you all over again, thinking about the endless possibilities that lay ahead. Penn launched me on an exciting journey from Economics major to Fortune 500 companies and eventually to adoption advocacy. I have no doubt that your own journey will be equally rewarding! I am not alone in experiencing a range of emotions for all of you, including heartbreak over the many sacrifices you have made to stay safe where you live and on campus. I’d like to pause for a moment to recognize that. The good news is—you will be back. Before COVID-19, I returned to Locust Walk more than I could have ever imagined when I graduated. In time, we will all be reunited. So, here is the silver lining with a little bit of perspective—gratitude. I am grateful in this moment to be a part of a community that is as vibrant and hopeful as each of you.
