Young America PAC

In 1997, Fels students and alumni, along with others involved in politics, founded a nonpartisan political networking organization in the Philadelphia region that is known as Young America PAC. The group has grown to several hundred members who range in age from 20-60 and now is the premier political social organization in the region. It regularly hosts elected officials, candidates, and other political figures at its receptions and panel discussions. YA PAC provides Fels students and alumni with an extensive and easily accessible employment and social network. Fels encourages all of its students to join and participate in this group. Its website is www.youngamericapac.org/.
