Design Matters: The Campaign for PennDesign
Campaign Chair(s): Robert Heidenberg, C'80
Campaign Goal: $20 million
Priority Highlights: Facilities, Endowed Chairs, Endowed Fellowships, Programs, Annual Giving
While classes in art and design use terms like borders, hard edges, and walls, PennDesign recognizes no boundaries when it comes to the disciplines it teaches. With top-ranked courses in fine arts, architecture, landscape architecture, city and regional planning, historic preservation, digital media design, visual studies, and urban studies, students are well prepared to unite theory and practice in a global, urban environment.

UPDATE 2008: THE FIRST YEAR OF MAKING HISTORY | |
| Last year's greatest fundraising triumph? | |
| The individual generosity and collective enthusiasm of the Overseers, who are committed to fostering increased engagement across PennDesign. | |
| Biggest (and nicest!) surprise? | |
| The tremendous, energetic alumni who established a fund for innovative programming in architecture, sustainable design and professional practice, including much-needed fellowships. | |
| Most memorable moment? | |
| Watching the stream of visitors coming to Addams Hall's exhibit of amazing contemporary photography, loaned by a great alumnus/collector, Martin Margulies, W'59, and hearing how those photos deeply affected Fine Arts students. | |
| Your main focus this year? | |
| Broadening awareness of the insights designers bring to the environmental, social and economic challenges of the 21st century. | |
| What's most exciting about Making History? | |
| Increasing the informed thinking that the next generation of designers will bring to global challenges and opportunities. | |
