Laura W. Perna is Vice Provost for Faculty, GSE Centennial Presidential Professor of Education, and Executive Director of the Alliance for Higher Education and Democracy (AHEAD) at the University of Pennsylvania (Penn).

Recent publications include Improving research-based knowledge of college promise programs (with Edward Smith, 2020, AERA), Taking it to the streets: The role of scholarship in advocacy and advocacy in scholarship (2018, Johns Hopkins University Press), and The Attainment Agenda: State policy leadership for higher education (with Joni Finney, 2014, Johns Hopkins University Press). She has served as President of the Association for the Study of Higher Education (ASHE), Vice President of the Post secondary Division of the American Educational Research Association (AERA), and Chair of Penn’s Faculty Senate. She is a member of the Gates Commission on the Value of Post secondary Education and the Board of Directors for the Post secondary National Policy Institute (PNPI). Among other honors, she has received the Christian R. and Mary F.
