    Dear Mr. Gillespie:

    President Gutmann has shared with me your recent letter concerning a possible

    fellowship for Dr. Chen Tao because as Deputy Provost I have oversight for Ph.D. Education and

    some aspects

    of

    postdoctoral education at Penn. Unfortunately, I cannot be ofmuch help to you.

    There are no centrally-awarded postdoctoral fellowships given at Penn. Most postdoctoral

    fellows are appointed, and work, under the supervision of an individual faculty member who

    agrees to serve as the fellow's mentor. Financial support for a fellow is derived from the faculty

    member's research or training grant. Therefore, the best way of obtaining a postdoctoral

    fellowship is to write directly to an individual faculty member or to the department or program of

    interest. I would also suggest that Dr. Tao visit the School of Medicine's website that lists open

    postdoctoral positions (it also includes postdoctoral opportunities in Veterinary and Dental

    Medicine). It can be reached at http://www.upenn.eduJpostdoc/positions.html

    You also have asked whether there is someone at Penn who can provide faculty and

    historical infonnation about the University. You should contact Mark Lloyd, the Universi ty's

    archivist. He can be reached at the following address:

    Mark Lloyd, Director

    University Archives and Records Center

    N Arcade, Franklin Field

    University of Pennsylvania

    Philadelphia; P 19104-6320

    You probably should also visit the Archives web site, which provides considerable infonnation.

    Its address is: http://www.archives.upenn.edu/

    I hope this is helpful and wish Dr. Tao well in his search for a postdoctoral fellowship.

    University of Pennsylvania

    Office of the President

    100 College Hall/6380

    Philadelphia, PA 19104-6380

    Dear President Gutmann,

    Thank you for your letter of September 15, 2005. Your story and family history

    are moving. I fondly remember my association with the Philadelphia area Jewish

    community. As a young entrepreneur in the 1980’s, I owe my success to that connection.

    I am disappointed with Penn’s decision to eliminate the Wharton Evening School.

    The evening program began in 1904, and is a 102 year-old tradition. Diversity will suffer 

    at Penn as a result of the closing. Enclosed is a copy of Anita Henderson’s letter denying

    the completion of my BBA degree.

    As a fifteen year-old high school student, I spent three days at Penn participating

    in a  junior science and humanities program. Upon graduating high school I did not

    attend college due to socioeconomic factors and a craniofacial disorder that inhibited 

    speaking. Instead I labored at the US Steel Fairless Works for a year. Eventually I

    landed a job managing a car dealership owned by a Jewish man.

    Within a few years I started my own business, studied at the Wharton Evening

    School, and obtained reconstructive surgery. At Penn I met Jordan Peiper, my business

    law professor. He was a friend, and counsel to my business interests. However, after 

    earning my ABA, events caused me to question my education.

    One such event was the fall of Wharton icon Michael Milken and his subsequent

    criminal conviction. I still recall when his portrait was removed from Steinberg-Dietrich

    Hall. Another was more personal, when Wharton professor Jordan Peiper was jailed for 

    stealing from a client’s trust fund, and subsequently disbarred.

    As an antidote to Penn, I moved west and earned a BA from The Evergreen State

    College, Olympia. Contemporaneously I commuted to the Oregon Health Sciences

    University, Portland, to continue craniofacial habilitation. There I met Dr. Ningyi Li, a

    visiting scholar from the People’s Republic of China. Dr. Li is chairman of Oral and 

    Maxillofacial Surgery at Qingdao Medical College Hospital.

    On February 24, 1997, I wrote to the Wharton Alumni Club President for the

    People’s Republic of China, Professor Wang Xi, in an effort to utilize the much touted 

    lifelong relationship of the Wharton global network. Dr. Li also wrote Professor Wang

    Xi on my behalf, in his native language. Wang Xi did not respond to either letter.

    Earlier this year Dr. Li asked if I could find a fellowship for one of his students,

    Dr. Chen Tao, MD, an Oral and Maxillofacial radiologist. I contacted Corky Cacas,

    director of Penn’s DMD and Graduate programs, and Dr. Hangorsky’s office of 

    International Relations. There was little or no interest.

    In your letter of September 15, 2005, you said the we all have an obligation to dogood in the world. If you could arrange for a fellowship on behalf of Dr. Li, I believe

    this would be a mitzvah. Chinese workers do not have the occupational protections that

    exist in America, and when workers are maimed in industrial accidents, Dr. Li and his

    staff reconstruct their faces and lives. This is poignant as Chinese workers are

    increasingly injured producing goods for the American market. Enclosed you will find 

    Dr. Li’s contact information.

    As for completing my BBA degree, I am abandoning that effort. I was seeking the

    degree solely as a prerequisite for service in Iraq with an American contractor. My degree

    from the Evergreen State College does not award grades, only narrative evaluations, which

    are not compatible with the job application process. Since then my mother has taken ill

    and I am caring for her.

    For now I am writing a non-fiction book which incorporates some of the above

    material. Is there a liaison who provides factual and historical information about Penn?

    Thank you for your consideration.

    Sincerely,

     Neil J. Gillespie

    Dear Mr. Gillespie:

    Thank you for your letter. As you may have read in

    some

    articles that appeared about me when I was first appointed Penn's

    president,

    my parents were

    Jewish.

    I

    too, practice

    Judaism

    and

    believe in the precepts of the Torah and that we all have an obligation

    to

    do

    good in the world.

    My father escaped from Nazi

    Germany

    in 1934. His experiences

    during

    that time

    and

    the aid

    he

    received from others

    helped

    to

    shape

    my

    abiding respect for different faith traditions.

    One

    of the things

    that

    I love

    about

    being a

    member of

    a university

    community

    is interacting

    with

    people of

    many

    different religions

    and

    creeds,

    and

    the dialogue

    that can result from

    that

    diversity.

    I appreciate your

    mterest

    and

    your

    kind words.

    Dear Mr. Gillespie:

    This is in response to your letter

    of

    September 9 2005 requesting the completion

    of

    your degree at the Wharton School. I reviewed your request to complete your degree,

    and it is not possible for you to complete the degree. As you know the BBA program

    will end in May 2006.

    After reviewing your Wharton transcript, it is our assessment that you would be

    required to return to Wharton for 6 fundamental courses (monetary economics, business

    policy, 2 semesters

    of

    calculus, 2 semesters

    of

    statistics); 2 business electives; and 1

    concentration course in marketing. Some

    of

    these courses (such as calculus and

    statistics) are no longer offered because the program is being ended. You are not

    permitted to transfer these courses from other institutions.

    In addition, it is not the policy to allow students to have transfer credit apply to

    the degree once they have matriculated. Exceptions to this policy have been made only

    for students who are currently enrolled and cannot complete their non-business courses

    by May 2006.

    I wish you the best

    of

    luck in your future endeavors.

    Sipcerely,

    Participant must have degree

    in DMD

    Program

    is

    for 2 years 24 months). Cost is $49,000 US dollar each year or $98,000 for two year program. Extra

    cost for

    food,

    housing, etc. What do you think? Did you go to the web site? All this information is

    on

    the web

    site, listed below.

    You

    know, this program is

    very

    involved, very formal. Maybe

    you

    want something less formal, less costly?

    Thanks,

    Dear Dr. Li,

    Thank you for the Christmas card, it is good to hear from you. How are you

    feeling? How is your family? I hope everything is good for you.

    I moved since my last letter to you. I am now living in Florida. As you may recall,

    my family lives in Florida. I moved here in October and lived with them for a short time,

     but now I have my own apartment. Enclosed are some post cards of Florida.

    Another reason for my trip to Florida is to receive medical treatment for 

    velopharyngeal incompetence. I am now a patient at the University of Florida Shands

    Hospital in Gainesville. My doctor is William N. Williams, Ph.D., speech pathologist,

    and Director and Professor of the Craniofacial Center. Last month Dr. Williams

     performed a videofluoroscopic assessment of my velopharyngeal port. Dr. Williams

    thinks a surgical procedure may alleviate my need for an obturator. He will do anasendoscopic assessment on February 4 to determine if surgery is a viable

    consideration. If so, I may receive surgery in March.

    I did not accept the teaching position in Korea, preferring to finish my medical

    treatment before I travel. Also, I would rather come to China and visit you. My alumni

    magazine from the University of Pennsylvania, Wharton School, lists a Wharton Alumni

    Club in China. The club’s address and president is:

    Professor Wang Xi (Ethan Wang), WG’47

    President of Shanghai Institute of Business Administration

    B: 862-1-64335-442, F: 862-1-6437-2475

    I will contact Professor Wang to ask if any employment or business opportunity

    exist for me in China. Do you have any suggestions for me? I will wait for your comment

     before I contact Professor Wang.

    Later this year I plan to take the Law School admission test. Also, I am still

    considering studying psychology in graduate school. And I am thinking about perhaps

    opening a small business. I have many decisions to make about my career. Good jobs in

    America are difficult to find. Too many jobs pay low wages. In March I turn 41 years old and must make good use of my time to secure my future.

    Hope to hear from you soon. Wishing you good luck and health for the new year!

    Dear Mr. Gillespie:

    Your recent correspondence to Mr. Philip Shelton has been forwarded to me for response.

    The Law School Admission Council has long been committed to ensuring student diversity in legal education,

    and as part of that commitment the LSAC Fee Waiver Program was established to ensure that no person is

    denied access to law school because of the inability to pay. However, because the cost of the services covered

    by the LSAC fee waive r is only a fraction

    of

    the cost ofa legal education, the

    need

    criterion is considerably

    more stringent than for other fmancial aid processes.

    With regard to

    your

    specific question concerning the standards, calculation,

    and

    confidential nature

    of

    the need

    criterion, know that while we are unable to make this infornlation public, the approval of a waiver of LSAC

    fees is supported by a variety of components to determine a candidate's eligibility for a fee waiver. n

    individual's income, cash balances, independent vs. dependent status, and

    number of

    dependents are all factors

    used to determine eligibility. We are reluctant to disclose criterions because we have not requested a means to

    validate an applican t's responses. Realize that fee waivers are intended for only the most needy candidates,

    which implies need in excess of that required for routine fmancial assistance.

    Additionally, the initial fee waiver consideration is based solely

    on

    the information included on a candidate's

    fee waiver application. However,

    if

    the candidate's fee waiver is denied by LSAC

    and

    they decide to appeal

    the decision, supplemental information then becomes crucial.

    In

    other words, you do have the right to appeal

    Law Services' decision regarding

    your

    eligibility for a waiver if you have additional, substantial

    documentation which will lend support to your fee waiver request. This is where a candidate's liabilitiesood

    expenses would become mitigating factors. Examples of such documentation include, but are not limited to,

    documentation of a disability,

    proof

    of

    jo b

    loss, and/or proof of extraneous medical expenses.

    Responding to your comment addressing

    your

    concern that a candidate's disability status is ignored on the

    LSATILSDAS Registration Form and the LSAC Fee Waiver Application, know that accommodations may be

    available to individuals with documented disabilities who wish to take the LSAT (see pages 11-12 of the 1997

    98 LSATILSDAS Registration nd Information Book . Ifa candidate is granted testing accommodations

    because ofa disability, he/she is afforded the option of having the information related to the request for

    accommodations released with the reports to the law schools. So while it

    may

    appear we do

    not

    seek this data

    during the registration and fee waiver process,

    be

    assured that applicable candidate files do reflect this

    information. A copy

    of

    the 1997-98 Disabilities Request Packet, including the 1997-98

    LSATILSDAS

    Registration nd Information Book is enclosed.

    Also, please be assured that a candidate's ethnic designation on the LSAC Fee Waiver Application

    and LSATILSDAS Registration Form is optional and has

    no

    bearing on fee waive r considerations. This

    information is used to compile statistical data about the test-taking popula tion and test-taker trends. It can also

    assist law schools to identify and reach out to groups that are under represented in the applicant pool, if they so

    wish. Concerning

    your

    specific question, the answer is based

    on

    the ways

    our

    applicants self-identify and the

    overwhelming number of applicants who differentiate themselves in this way; for this reason we use those

    distinctions.

    If you any additional questions

    or

    concerns, please do not hesitate to contact our office.

    Sincerely, .

    Dear

    Professor Wang,

    As a Wharton alumnus, I am happy to learn that an alumni club exists in the

    People s Republic of China. I am writing to you as President of the Wharton Alumni Club

    in my effort to find suitable employment. I want to work in the

    People s

    or

    another

    job

    if something is available. Enclosed is a copy of my resume.

    My

    friend, Dr. Ningyi Li, lives in Qingdao and can provide you a reference for me.

    of

    the Department

    together to Yellowstone National

    Three years ago, three Wharton alumni

    formed the Wharton Entrepreneurial

    Alumni Club to help enterprising alumni

    network and develop ideas for new busi-

    ness ventures.

    Today, the club has more than 400

    members on its database as well as a host

    of activities planned for the rest of this

    year, according to Nigel Edelshain, WG’93,

    one of the three founders.

    “For entrepreneurs more than any other

    business people, contacts are critical,” says

    Edelshain. In addition, “by working

    together, small business owners can gain

    access to resources they would otherwise

    miss.”

    The Wharton Entrepreneurial Alumni

    Club holds informal bi-monthly cocktail

    hours and has sponsored such speakers as

     John Sculley, WG’63, Alan Patricof and

    Ronald Lauder, W’65.

    It has also partnered with the Wharton

    Club of New York to present discussions

    on entrepreneurial topics like “How to Buy

    a Business.”

    A club newsletter will be available elec-

    tronically and a membership directory,

    giving details of all members’ interests andindustries, is planned for later this year,

    Edelshain says.

    Other new initiatives include partner-

    ship programs with the Wharton Clubs of 

    Northern and Southern California, and

    the creation of special interest groups for

    more in-depth discussions of key issues.

    The Club’s other two founders are

     Jonathan Terzi, W’91, president of a con-

    sulting firm in New York City called Terzi

    Enterprises, and Jonathan Blanc, W’93,

    founder and owner of a clothing import

    company called Collegiate Traditions.

    Edelshain is director of corporate projects

    at Paradigm Systems Corp., a three-year-old computer services company in

    New York.

    Anyone interested in finding out more,

    call 1-800-220-5031. That line includes

    the latest news on upcoming events as

    well as information on how to get

    involved in the Club. ”

    Standing Students (PASS)

    The Program

    for

    Advanced Standing

    Students is

    especially designed for

    graduates of foreign dental schools

    who

    want to practice

    dentistry

    in

    the

    United

    States. Most states require a degree from

    an American Dental Association (ADA)

    accredited dental school before

    they grant

    license. To prepare non-U.S. trained dentists

    to meet this requirement, the University of C ~ ~ ~ ~ ~  

    Pennsylvania School

    of

    Dental Medicine

    offers a

    two-year

    Program

    for

    Advanced Standing Students (PASS) which

    leads to a D.M.D. degree. Successful completion of

    the

    program allows

    dentists from overseas

    to

    take licensing exams in any state.

    Special features of PASS

    The program starts with an

    ten-week

    course from April through June

    where students review knowledge and skills

    taught

    in

    the first

    two years

    of

    the

    dental curriculum. "Principles

    of treatment

    at

    the

    School

    of

    Dental

    Medicine are discussed. n additional feature

    of the summer

    program is

    the DentSim Virtual Reality) Laborato "'L. The DentSim unit, with a

    stylized

    patient

    mannequin, creates a realistic learning

    context for

    practicing and perfecting dental procedures.

    This

    summer

    program enables

    P SS

    students

    to

    make a smooth transition

    into

    the

    clinics in

    the

    fall. Students are integrated

    into the

    regular class

    where

    they

    take

    part

    in all courses and clinical experiences in

    the

    third

    and fourth years

    of

    dental school. They participate in a modern group

    health care delivery system which simulates general practice.

    In

    addition,

    they rotate through specialty departments and work under the

    preceptorship

    of master

    clinicians.

    P SS also offers a special English course that will allow foreign dentists to

    enhance and strengthen communication skills in

    the

    English language.

    Classes are arranged to prepare students for interaction in clinical settings

    as well as

    for

    everyday conversation. Support and advisory services are

    provided through a student advisor appointed

    to

    assist foreign dentists

    and through

    the

    Office of

    International

    Programs

    at the

    University

    of

    ffice of

    nternational

    Relations

    The School of Dental Medicine has a long history of internationalization in

    its mission, programs, and its constituency. Its

    students, faculty,

    and

    staff

    is diverse reflecting the increasing diversity in the

    US

    . Alongside the

    diversity

    is the growing awareness and increasing

    involvement

    in global

    issues in oral health.

    The Office of International Relations was created in 1989 to develop and

    implement

    programs that will maintain

    the

    international stature of the

    School of Dental Medicine; strengthen the international outlook

    of

    its

    faculty,

    students

    and

    staff,

    increase

    the

    school's

    involvement

    in global

    oral health issues and to expand its network with dental schools and other

    Institutions

    worldwide.

    Our Vision

    We

    continue

    to strive toward

    the continuation

    of

    the

    School of Dental

    Medicine as an international center for education, clinical practice, and

    research in oral

    health.

    The School's goal for internationalization is part of

    the thrust

    of

    the whole university's vision: "The University of Pennsylvania

    affirms its international

    commitment

    - in its people, its

    pursuits,

    and Its

    programs; the preparation of its students and faculty to be members of a

    more

    cohesive world; the generation

    of

    knowledge on a more global

    orientation; and provision of its academic resources to the extent feasible,

    to nations and to

    institutions

    involved in international activities."

    Our Programs

    The

    work

    of the Office

    of International

    Relations revolves around three
