🐣 The Cathedral’s newest residents are growing FAST! The four peregrine falcon chicks living on the 40th floor of the Cathedral of Learning were recently banded and given a clean bill of health.

🥳 This year marks 25 seasons of partnership among Pitt, the Western Pennsylvania Conservancy, Pennsylvania Game Commission and National Aviary to support the peregrines that call Cathy home. Since 2002, nearly 70 chicks have fledged from the Cathedral. Watch them before they leave the nest later this summer 👉 http://pi.tt/el

In Sellersville, Pennsylvania, rising housing costs have made it harder for older residents to stay close to the people and places they love. Pitt graduate Sean Kelly (BUS ’04), alongside fellow alumni Jeff Darwak (A&S ’05), Jordan Space (BUS ’06) and Jordan Laird (BUS ’12), helped bring a new affordable senior housing community to life. 👉 http://pi.tt/eg
