Co-workers breeze down home 'stretch' to pizzeria perfection
Published 11.05.2022
Thursday's third installment of Penn College's Pride Engagement Series, a faculty/staff development initiative of the Office of People & Culture, featured the art of making pizza with Business & Hospitality. Twenty-five participants learned the components of properly making pizza dough, as well as techniques on how to stretch and throw it. Afterwards, colleagues enjoyed camaraderie while savoring their own creations!
