Penny was an important member of the staff of the National Park Service in Philadelphia and supervised the Park Service's restora- tions of many of the city's most significant historic buildings. In addi- tion to being the only woman on the team of preservationists that restored Independence Hall, as chief architect of the Park Service she was actively engaged with the restoration of Congress Hall, Old City Hall, Old Swedes Church and many other properties. Penny was an energetic advocate of historic preservation in Philadelphia. She was dedicated to the preservation of Society Hill, where she lived and where she and her husband restored two houses. As noted by John A. Milner FAIA, a colleague and admirer, “Penny was a great teacher whose enthusiasm for the design and construction details of early Philadelphia buildings inspired many young architects and preservationists who were fortunate enough to work with her.” Penny's accomplishments were recognized by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission in 1991 with the Preservationist of the Year award. In 2000, she received the James Biddle Award for Lifetime Achievement from the Preservation Alliance for Greater Philadelphia. 2007 PRESERVATION ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS 3 SPECIAL RECOGNITION AWARDS Each year the board of directors of the Preservation Alliance selects individuals and organizations to receive special recognition for their contributions to historic preservation.

Even with the new Comcast Tower topping out at 975 feet, overall office occupancy still climbed to 89%, as the expansion of existing firms and several new arrivals downtown pushed Class A rents up 14%. For the first time in 15 years, Center City increased its share of regional office space. Healthcare and educational institutions continued to attract students, patients and research dollars to downtown, while elementary schools experienced strong demand from the growing number of families in Center City with children. The Pennsylvania Convention Center expansion commenced and plans advanced for new hotels, as occupancy and room rates steadily climbed. On Independence Mall, the National Museum of American Jewish History started construction, while the Barnes Foundation retained designers for a new home on the Benjamin Franklin Parkway. Housing prices remained strong, rents steadily climbed and rental vacancy rates dropped to 4.6%, as new residents continued to flock to Center City. While the average condo sold for $428,596, 115 units sold in 2007 for more than $1 million, double the number in 2006.

    EASTERN UNIVERSITY POST-GRADUATION REPORT 2019 FIRST DESTINATION SURVEY : TRADITIONAL UNDERGRADUATE BACCALAUREATE COLLEGES Eastern University Center for Career Development | www.eastern.edu/careers 2 TRADITIONAL UNDERGRADUATE BACCALAUREATE COLLEGES: Class of 2019 First Destination Survey ABOUT THE SURVEY The first destination survey provides an overview regarding the status of Eastern University Traditional Undergraduate Baccalaureate (TUB) alumni within six to nine months of graduation. For the purposes of this survey, “Class of 2019” is defined as a TUB student who graduated in August 2018, December 2018, or May 2019. The Center for Career Development gathered statistics using the professional guidelines set forth by NACE (National Association for Colleges and Employers). The First Destination Survey, created by Handshake using NACE guidelines, was distributed electronically to TUB alumni. Data were also gathered via paper surveys at May 2019 graduation rehearsal. Faculty members were contacted via email in early 2020 about graduates whose status remained unknown. Additionally, information on non-responders was captured from updated professional profiles on social media si tes (primarily LinkedIn) as well as employer webpages. Through this extensive process, we obtained an 86% knowledge rate of the Class of 2019. “Knowledge rate”, as defined by NACE, is the “percent of graduates for which an institution has reasonable and verifiable information concerning the graduates’ post -graduation career activities.” Our intention is to provide a summary of first destination highlights, as well as a specific breakdown by TUB Colleges for the Class of 2019. Submitted by Sarah Todd, M.Ed ’13, Director, Center for Career Development, 4/11/20 GENERAL SUMMARY 96% of the Class of 2019 survey respondents are employed, involved in post- graduate education, or serving in full-time volunteer work within 6-9 months of graduation.

In a matter of a few weeks, efforts by county politicians to ascend the color-coded tiers that allow successively wider open- ings of business and social sectors have been abandoned as rates of infections, deaths, and hospitalizations have sky- rocketed to unprecedented levels. In August OC’s Adjusted Daily Case Rate per 100,000 residents had dropped well below 7, allowing the County to ascend from the Widespread (Purple) Tier to the Red (Substantial) Tier of the State’s Blueprint for a Safer Economy, allowing more businesses to reopen. County officials were aspiring for that figure to drop below 4 that would move the County up to the even less restrictive Moderate (Orange) Tier. That figure has now exploded to over 53, dropping Orange County far back into the Purple Tier for the foreseeable future.
