Good morning, Penn.
Hi! I'm looking forward to kicking off your week again this semester as your Monday DP Daybreak anchor.
Campus staple Allegro Pizza and Grill permanently eliminated its late-night hours, while students saw a delayed opening and limited menu at Williams Cafe during the first week of classes. But first, recently released demographic data for the Class of 2028 shows a decrease in the number of enrolled students from historically underrepresented groups.
The annually released demographic data for the Class of 2028 shows a decrease in the number of enrolled students from historically underrepresented groups — 23% of this year's class compared to 25% of the Class of 2027. This is in line with national trends in the wake of the United States Supreme Court's overturn of affirmative action.
"Our class continues to represent similar proportions of students who are first generation to college, Pell-eligible, and students of color, though the proportion of students from underrepresented racial and ethnic backgrounds has decreased 2% points,” Dean of Admissions Whitney Soule wrote in a statement to The Daily Pennsylvanian.
Penn Admissions has not released detailed demographic information about the Class of 2028.
