Alumnus David C**n from reflected on his time with TPC:

“My liberal arts education, which included an off campus internship at TPC, was instrumental in developing the fundamental skills and confidence to be successful in
my career.”

🏙️ O-Week was a fantastic start to the semester! Our students embraced their new city with open arms, exploring diverse neighborhoods, engaging the vibrant arts scene, and connecting with the community.

From Reading Terminal to exploring Philly’s public art with Mural Arts Philadelphia they’ve begun to uncover the layers that make Philadelphia unique. As we wrap up Orientation Week, we’re excited to see how they’ll continue to grow and their mark on this dynamic city throughout the semester.

🌆 Our students have hit the ground running in Philadelphia, diving into city life during O-Week over the last few days. From learning about city smarts with Bicycle Coalition of Greater Philadelphia Executive Director Chris Gale and taking in the flavors Reading Terminal Market to listing to the vibrant stories told through the Mural Arts Philadelphia Tour, our students are just beginning their Philly adventure!
