Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

The University of Pennsylvania (commonly referred to as Penn or UPenn) is a private research university located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Penn is the fourth-oldest institution of higher education[3] in the United States, and is one of several institutions that claims to have been the first university in America. Penn is a member of the Ivy League and is one of the Colonial Colleges.

In FY2009, Penn's academic research programs undertook more than $730 million in research, involving some 3,800 faculty, 1,000 postdoctoral fellows and 5,400 support staff/graduate assistants. Much of the funding is provided by the National Institutes of Health for biomedical research. Penn tops the Ivy League in annual spending, with a projected 2009 budget of $5.542 billion.[citation needed] In 2008, it ranked fifth among U.S. universities in fundraising, bringing in about $475.96 million in private support.[4]

Incorporated as The Trustees of the University of Pennsylvania, Penn is one of 14 founding members of the Association of American Universities.

In 1740, a group of Philadelphians joined together to erect a great preaching hall for the evangelist George Whitefield. Designed and built by Edmund Woolley, it was the largest building in the city and it was also planned to serve as a charity school. The fundraising, however, fell short and although the building was erected, the plans for both a chapel and the charity school were suspended. In the fall of 1749, eager to create a college to educate future generations, Benjamin Franklin circulated a pamphlet titled "Proposals for the Education of Youth in Pennsylvania," his vision for what he called a "Public Academy of Philadelphia."[5] However, according to Franklin's autobiography, it was in 1743 when he first drew up a proposal for establishing the academy, "thinking the Rev. Richard Peters a fit person to superintend such an institution." Unlike the other three American Colonial colleges that existed at the time&_160;— Harvard, William and Mary, and Yale&_160;— Franklin's new school would not focus merely on education for the clergy. He advocated an innovative concept of higher education, one which would teach both the ornamental knowledge of the arts and the practical skills necessary for making a living and doing public service. The proposed program of study became the nation's first modern liberal arts curriculum.

1. Lack of health insurance among college students a concern in flu season
October 02, 2009

Young people 6 months to 24 years old are among the groups more susceptible to the H1N1 flu virus. That includes much of the undergraduate college population, which often forgoes health insurance. The lack of health insurance among many young adults was highlighted locally this week by the death of a recent Miami University graduate, reportedly due to complications of the H1N1 flu virus. The former student, still living in Oxford, delayed medical treatment because she had no health insurance, according to a friend and former roommate. Miami mandates health insurance for all of i...

2. Go low & eat more For Good Health
September 24, 2009

It has been advocated that eating a low-calorie food, such as vegetables and fruits, can provide you with many healthy benefits. A new study, conducted by Pennsylvania State University in State College and published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association, has further proved that a low-energy-dense eating plan not only reduce the total energy intake but also maintain a high-quality diet, without having to decrease the amount of food consumed each day. A low-calorie or a low-energy-dense meal has fewer calories for every gram of food compared with high-calorie meal. The energy ... (read more)

3. St. Joe's among universities mandating health insurance : Luigi Condina
September 24, 2009

Health insurance is now mandatory for Saint Joseph's undergraduate day students. In the past, students who did not have health insurance and were in need of emergency care were sometimes covered at the university's expense, although Saint Joseph's was under no obligation to do so. This year, however, the university opted to mandate health insurance to avoid exorbitant costs and ensure student safety. Mary-Elaine Perry, Ed.D., assistant vice president for Student Development, said that concern for the welfare of the student body is what mainly prompted the university to make heal... (read more)

6. The Secret To Having A Powerful Memory!
August 18, 2009

Artificial intelligence will likely never be a match to the computing power of the human mind. A computer, even with artificial intelligence, can’t write a poem that moves us, improvise the words to a song that invokes love, or tell a good joke that has us on the floor roaring in laughter. Most of all, it cannot match the memory capacity of your mind once you know the tricks that professionals use. According to a study by Pennsylvania State University, humans use only 10% of their brain capacity to reason, draw inferences, and create new knowledge out of old. Even the most sophisticated s...

About one in eight York County residents under age 65 had no health insurance in 2006, according to Census data.

9. Health Insurance For your Pet
July 09, 2009

Since from the beginning, most of the veterinarian’s clientele was the farm livestock (large animals). Dogs, cats and other household pets made up of such a small amount of their day to day business. There was a very less reason to study up on it. Even the famous European veterinarian, James Herriot, founded on the Yorkshire farmers for a majority of his country clinic business. In 1884 there comes the change when University of Pennsylvania’s veterinary school opened the United States very first clinic specializing for the veterinary needs of dogs. In 2001 the United States of America had o... (read more)
