“University of Pennsylvania President Amy Gutmann today announced that Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. has been named the Benjamin Franklin Presidential Practice Professor at the University of Pennsylvania, where he will lead the Penn Biden Center for Diplomacy and Global Engagement, a new center focused principally on diplomacy, foreign policy, and national security. The Center will be located in Washington, D.C. Biden will also have an office on the Penn campus in Philadelphia.”

Presidential Practice Professor… Interesting name, , practice for the next run …

omg that makes me even more excited to apply next fall!

My D is a junior poly sci major - SO excited about this!

Everyone is super excited.It has been the talk of alumni circles in New York (and I imagine everywhere else) since it was announced. I only wish this had happened while I was still at Penn haha

My D is in grad school at Columbia and recently had the good fortune to meet Joe Biden right before he left office – -- she said he was amazingly friendly, warm, and engaged. It will be great for Penn to have him as a presence on campus.
