The Gallery at Penn College

True to its name, Penn College's Student Engagement Office jams the schedule with activities that connect students to a variety of experiences. Any given day brings the prospect of a learning opportunity or a leadership challenge – and, many times, events that are just plain fun. So it is during "PC3," which begins each new academic year. Among the recent activities were the "Pick Your Paint Party" on Aug. 18, held in and around the Thompson Professional Development Center, and "Rose Street Rocks," an outdoor festival in the Rose Street Commons courtyard the following evening.
