More than 600 students enjoyed one of Penn College's longest-running traditions: Dining Services' Midnight Breakfast, which this year observed its silver anniversary.
A cultural interchange between Pennsylvania College of Technology and visitors from North West Regional College in Northern Ireland – a two-week whirlwind that was five years in the making – came to a close with memories indelibly shared and lives irrevocably altered.
Penn College's annual "YELLow It Out" observance, sponsored this past week by Student Affairs and People & Culture, offered coordinated programming aimed at sharing resources and raising awareness for suicide prevention.
Midnight Breakfast – a gastronomical (though unscientific) gauge of student success – was held from 10 p.m.-midnight Thursday in the Keystone Dining Room. The free student meal featured a menu of breakfast sandwiches, bacon, home fries, ice cream, a yogurt bar and beverages.
Among items on the menu were Cider Brined Turkey, Brown Sugar Grilled Peach and Bourbon Glazed Ham, stuffing, and mashed Yukon potatoes. A variety of scrumptious side dishes included Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Cinnamon Butternut Squash, with pecans and cranberries.
Whether you're hungry for a full-course feast or just hankering for a slice of pizza, Dining Services has you covered. Thanks to nine locations across Penn College, a meal or snack is always nearby!

Dining Services hosted its fifth annual Soup for the Soul event on Thursday, collecting more than $1,000 to benefit The Cupboard (Bush Campus Center, first floor).
Wednesday's "Taste the World," a redesigned version of the Multicultural Lawn Party, turned the Bush Campus Center patio into a gathering of the global citizens who comprise Penn College. From 11 a.m.-1 p.m., students, faculty and staff enjoyed free food, T-shirts, demonstrations, and arts and crafts – all while being introduced to different cultures, cuisine and more.
With the end of another academic year at hand, Pennsylvania College of Technology renewed a spring custom: presenting awards to noteworthy faculty and staff, and acknowledging retirements and other employee milestones. President Davie Jane Gilmour acknowledged the honorees during an expansive all-college meeting, held May 12 in the Klump Academic Center Auditorium and livestreamed.
As students get ready for final exams, Dining Services is reliably alongside them – hosting several events, providing specials and treats, to fuel the body while scholars feed their minds. The fun kicked off Wednesday evening with a Beach Party at Capitol Eatery.
