Mary Seton Corboy, co-founder of Greensgrow Farms, the nationally recognized leader in urban farming.

Dr. Amy Hillier, assistant professor in city and regional planning in Penn's School of Design. Professor Hillier's research applies geographic information systems (GIS) and spatial analysis methods to housing and health topics.

at recreating W.E.B. Du Bois' 1896 foot survey of downtown Philadelphia using GIS.
Dr. Rickie Sanders, professor of geography and urban studies at Temple University.
