Each year, students from seven Penn State campuses in Western Pennsylvania commemorate the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday by coming together and performing volunteer work. This year’s event was held on Monday, January 16, with Fayette serving as the host campus. Nearly 100 students participated.
Instead of having the day off, the student volunteers headed out to various non-profit sites to work.
As the University implements its long-range strategic plan that provides a vision for Penn State’s future, a series of public forums will take place to gather ideas on putting the plan into action. Faculty, staff and students are invited to participate in those forums, starting with “Stewarding Our Planet’s Resources” on Jan. 23.
The Penn State Office for General Education is pleased to announce an opportunity for faculty interested in developing a new Integrative Studies General Education course.
