A large wall mural honoring Eisenhower Fellowships’ 50 years was formally dedicated on October 2 in Philadelphia. The mural depicts a learning tree or Tree of Knowledge and hidden among the leaves are, in artist Michael Webb’s words, "objects alluding to the breadth of human endeavor, knowledge, and perseverance."

Eisenhower Fellow Jane Golden ’03 *, who heads Philadelphia’s Mural Arts Program, presided over the ceremony, which featured Abha Lambah ‘02, who is a conservation architect from Bombay.
