“New Kensington, Pa. – IUP student geographer Evan Tobin needed one more course to complete a Masters Degree in Geography: Regional Planning. An independent study course to cap his academic career was tailor-made.
Mr. Tobin’s earlier work in the New Kensington area (on a Design class project to create a plaNEWken concept plan) had increased the community’s capacity for better development, and created inspiration for surrounding communities to take a fresh look at their own planning and plan implementation policies. “
