This transition should be seamless for faculty, staff, and students. We have a great leadership team in place and are grateful that Wendell Pritchett has agreed to step in as interim President until the planned start of Liz Magill’s presidency on July 1.
She has led Penn to new heights of eminence and in doing so established herself as one of the most highly regarded academic leaders in the world.Īs she departs for Germany, Amy leaves Penn in exceptional shape. Her tenure as President has been among the most impactful in Penn’s history.
On behalf of the Board of Trustees and the entire University community, I want to thank Amy for the extraordinary work she has done in leading the University of Pennsylvania. Amy has officially resigned from her position as President and will shortly be departing Philadelphia for Berlin to represent our country’s interests with this important European ally. Senate, Amy Gutmann, who has served so admirably as Penn’s President for the past 17 years, will soon be sworn in as United States Ambassador to Germany.
