He is a great educator with great expertise and experience in education policy. He excels at facilitating students' mutual learning in and outside classroom. He is also one of a few faculty members who really understand and care about international students. GSE needs him!

Please do not deprive future students of a true learning experience.

He is the reason why I entered into GSE. His role in the school, overseeing the IED program is crucial. Its my hope that he be allowed to remain doing the wonderful job that he is doing.

He taught me a completely different way of thinking; to look at all factors when looking at something and above all else look at the source of any information given. Do not trust anything given to you, always question. I can not tell you how valuable this lesson has been for me in my life and it would be a shame for you to rob these lessons from future GSE students. He truly cares about his students and this should be encouraged not denied

I would be delighted to hear of Alan Ruby's return to Penn next year.

I am interested in study abroad advising, and his classes have provided me with a strong base of knowledge on international education and globalization. Professor Ruby's classes often tie together concepts that we have discussed in my other courses. He is engaging and has a lot of real world knowledge to share. I think it will be a real loss if future GSE students do not have the chance to work with Professor Ruby.

Please reconsider.

He has inspired me in all the courses I've taken with him. He makes every class exciting, engaging and extremely intellectually stimulating. He truly knows how to make students think. To refuse Professor Ruby tenure would be one of Penn's greatest mistakes and would detrimentally affect the educational experience of students to come. Please reconsider.

I feel privileged to have had the pleasure of being his student.

My first semester of school, I often asked ed school veterans across different programs and divisions what their favorite course was, as well as their favorite professor-- Ruby's courses and name came up the most of any professor at GSE.
