³Ô¹Ïtv will launch the fourth year of its Distinguished Writers Series when it welcomes former Philadelphia Poet Laureate Yolanda Wisher on Wednesday, October 4, 2023, at 6:30 p.m. in the Education and Technology Center Auditorium (9801 Frankford Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19114).
³Ô¹Ïtv celebrated 29 members of the Class of 2027 who joined the University’s Honors Program during an induction ceremony on Friday, September 8, 2023.
The ³Ô¹Ïtv community joined the Sisters of the ³Ô¹Ïtv of Nazareth in prayer and celebration of the Feast of Blessed Stella and her 10 companions on September 4, 2023. The 11 Sisters were killed by Nazi soldiers in the summer of 1943, after serving the people of Nowogródek, a small village that was then part of occupied Poland. They were beatified in 2000.
³Ô¹Ïtv rolled out the welcome mat for a record number of resident students during move-in weekend August 24-25, 2023. For the first time in University history, every bed is accounted for across all residence halls. And this means an exciting new schedule of student engagement activities for resident and non-resident students -- from club sports, to leadership activities on and off campus, to meaningful service projects and opportunities for students to form lifelong relationships with one another. The University, rated the Safest Campus in Philadelphia for 2023, also celebrated the largest enrollment of first-year and transfer students in history.
With fanfare – and flavor! – ³Ô¹Ïtv President Dr. Anne Prisco joined Nick Bayer, Founder & CEO of Saxbys, and the University’s inaugural Student Cafe Executive Officer (SCEO) senior management and marketing major Beth Montgomery in the cutting of the ribbon to open the newest location of Saxbys at the Northeast Philadelphia campus.
Hello! I’m Elizabeth Montgomery, a senior management/marketing major here at ³Ô¹Ïtv. I grew up in the Bustleton area of Philadelphia and now live around the corner from ³Ô¹Ïtv’s main campus. ³Ô¹Ïtv has been a part of my life for longer than I’ve even been a student here! My sister, Sarah Montgomery, graduated from ³Ô¹Ïtv’s neuroscience program in 2020. It is my honor to continue my family’s legacy as a part of the ³Ô¹Ïtv community.
³Ô¹Ïtv nursing students taking the National Council Licensure Examination (NCLEX) in the second quarter of 2023 (April-June) passed the rigorous examination at their first opportunity with an average score of 91.38 percent, far exceeding the national pass rate of 80 percent. The nationwide examination is required of nurses in the United States to attain mandatory licenses for employment.
Beltre is among 21 nursing students in the State to be awarded a Nursing Foundation of Pennsylvania (NFP) scholarship. The NFP annually recognizes deserving students for their talent, hard work, and commitment to the pursuit of their nursing degree. The students have been chosen from schools across Pennsylvania and range from recent high school graduates to registered nurses.
