Penn President Liz Magill spent time with a group of 2023 Penn graduates and SNF Paideia Program Fellows who traveled to Athens for the SNF Nostos 2023 Conference. Andreas Dracopoulos, W’86, Stavros Niarchos Foundation Co-President, joined the stimulating conversation at the National Library of Greece together with Michael X. Delli Carpini, Faculty Director of the Penn SNF Paideia Program and Interim Dean of Penn’s Annenberg School for Communication.

Penn’s visit to the birthplace of Democracy was a perfect capstone for the Fellows.  Paideia engages students in constructive dialogue and civic mindedness, including how to communicate across divides.  This gathering made clear that the Program will have a deep and lasting impact on the Penn student experience.
