The Panasci Local Leadership Initiative, made possible by Whitman supporter David Panasci ’80, will create professional connections and career building opportunities for students to remain in Central New York beyond graduation. 

Interim Dean Alex McKelvie shares, “In this edition, we describe how Whitman continues to set the stage in preparation for a better future. We highlight how we’re adjusting the curriculum to be at the forefront of what is happening in businesses—and where we believe the skills and abilities of our students will need to be.” 

Whitman will celebrate entrepreneurship during Orange Central with our Orange Tank business pitch competition and Syracuse Samplings showcase on September 29. Contact us today if you would like to apply to pitch your venture or have your product featured!

Whitman is pleased to collaborate with campus partners to host an Orange Evening in Boston featuring an interdisciplinary panel discussion with faculty from Whitman, Arts and Sciences, Architecture and Newhouse on social justice and labor.
