Documentary Short: Inner City Meets Ivy League

Posted by Freethink on April 5, 2022

Inner City Meets Ivy League is a 10 minute documentary style film and story featuring University-Assisted Community School (UACS) partnership involving Penn’s Netter Center for Community Partnerships and Paul Robeson High School, which was recently released by Freethink Media. This partnership was chosen to illustrate the potential of UACS for reimagining and significantly changing education for the better.

The benefits of this UACS partnership to both the Robeson community and Penn students, faculty, and staff have been powerful, and many are featured here.
