  • 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.
