“Just wanted to send a note to say thanks for your continued work w/ Penntertainment. it’s one of the various e-news blasts I read most days. I really liked the one about ‘3 generations at Penn’.”

“As an outsider to the entertainment industry and to LA, Penntertainment.com gave me an excellent jumping-off point to start my job search. It enabled me to learn about Penn alums in the entertainment industry and conduct necessary preliminary research. From there I was able to reach out to our incredible alumni network, schedule introductory meetings and phone calls, eventually land an interview, and finally secure an internship at a top Hollywood studio.”

“I got all misty-eyed looking at the site. I mean it gave me sense memory of Penn… of the Walk when it was cold, or being in McNeill with Abiel, or being in German class, or taking 20 extra minutes to get to class because of seeing everyone I knew on Locust Walk, or people that sat in my classes that are now really famous or important… just a great site”
