Rodin's home robbed; U. Police investigating

Several items were taken from Eisenlohr Hall, the president's official house. Eisenlohr Hall, the home of University President Judith Rodin, was burglarized during the day Monday, according to University Police. Penn Police Chief Maureen Rush said yesterday that the incident is being investigated as a theft. According to the University Police log book, the theft was reported at around 7 p.m. on Monday and occurred between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. that day. "Items were discovered missing from President Rodin's personal residence," Rush said last night. Police were unusually tight-lipped about the incident, refusing to disclose how the residence was broken into, whether there was anyone inside at the time or what was taken. Eisenlohr, the traditional home of the Penn president, is located at 3812 Walnut Street. Jennifer Baldino, the director of external affairs for the president's office, referred requests for comment to University spokesperson Ken Wildes, who said he could not provide any additional information.
