On Tuesday, July 26, the ELP, LPS, and other friends and associates gathered at the University of Pennsylvania to celebrate the life of James Riedel who passed away on May 25, 2022, after a long illness. 

Thank you for a great Summer 1 session! We had so much fun going on excursions and doing activities in the Student Center.

Getting to know each other at the beginning.

Beginning of Session Breakfast and Library Tour

The spring session began with a bang with our beginning-of-session breakfast. After breakfast, students embarked on a guided tour of the library.

Study English Online this Summer!

Hello, my name is Evelyn Martinez, and I am a Program Assistant at the ELP Student Center. On March 26th,  we were able to take the ELP to Washington, D.C. We were so excited that almost all of the students signed up to go!

Congratulations to all of the ELP students who were accepted to university degree programs for fall 2022!  After months of working night and day, along with their UniConn advisors and essay coaches, to put their best foot forward in their applications, students have been accepted to these schools and more! 

Despite in-person learning being delayed and some chilly weather, we had fun!

Liberty Bell & Ben Franklin Museum

We visited Philly's historic Liberty Bell and the Ben Franklin Museum, both part of Independence National Historic Park. It was a wet, gray day, but we had a great time.
