Benjamin Franklin Scholars
Joel Olujide

JWS freshman Joel Olujide came to Penn knowing he wanted to find a way to make his dreams of being a restaurateur a reality. He'd already worked in restaurants back in his home state of Maryland where he learned the service side of the restaurant business. Penn was his opportunity to learn the business side. Joel's efforts have landed him a feature in 34th Street Magazine!

Since having his efforts recognized Joel has seen an outpouring of support. 34th Street has helped to garner Joel campus wide recognition, but he is most grateful for the good will that he is receiving. Please support your classmate by reading about him in 34th Street!
