They were all 18-22 something age kids, so it stands to reason they were all USC students. Long story short, with all the college in/near center city, Penn should run this and get energetic students to work with visitors. Provide something the internet and AI can't replicate.

Philly's dreadful tourism numbers hurt in this category. Philadelphia Museum of art is 37th most visited in the country behind art museums in Grand Rapids, Denver, Cleveland etc.
