“Especially given the tremendous benefits enjoyed by the faculty, students, alumni and administrators of an elite educational institution like Penn, this university should do its part in tackling the racial and economic inequalities that are continually reproduced around us. Paying PILOTS would be a symbolic and practical way to make a difference in addressing what Jonathan Kozol rightly described as “savage inequalities” in public school funding -- inequalities that result in so many children with so much potential never even making it to college, let alone an ivy league institution like Penn.”

—Rudra Sil, Professor, Political Science & SAS Director, Huntsman Program in Int’l Studies & Business
