  • How To Really Run A City goes to college
    Sep 24 2026

    On a special live episode of How To Really Run A City, former Mayor Michael Nutter takes us inside his new Impact Scholars Program at the University of Pennsylvania. His co-host, former Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed, as well as former Tulsa Mayor GT Bynum are this year's inaugural scholars.

    "The idea is to match young people who want to go into public service with those who have served but are not yet finished," Nutter told the crowd. "We should not leave that knowledge and expertise on the bench."

    Join us (and Penn Impact Scholars students) for a driving discussion about the power of today's leaders to lift the innovators of tomorrow.

    As cities go, so goes the nation!
