THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA was
founded in 1740 by Benjamin Franklin as a
charitable school. At the conclusion of the
Revolution a new charter was given by the
State and the present title was assumed in
1791.
In 1875 the University was moved to the
present extensive grounds west of the Schuyl.
lill River where some thirty buildings have
been erected and are constantly being added
to.
