In action! Wildcat soccer player Brooke E. Klinger in on the run to support move-in efforts. Klinger, of Klingerstown, is a pre-dental hygiene student.

And so it begins: the Fall 2024 semester at Pennsylvania College of Technology! It was a wild Wildcat Wednesday as first-year students moved into their residence halls with an eager assist from many happy helpers.

After all the unpacking, the coming days are packed with fun and informative activities to ring in the new academic year. The Office of Student Engagement offers students the Engage site, a one-stop location for finding events and organizations to boost the college experience. Classes begin Monday.

Enjoy a few photos of the move-in mania (and watch for more photos as the start-up excitement rolls on).

A team effort gets the job done.
The load-out (and laundry basket, too)
Another women’s soccer player, Sara E. Pecchia, offers her energy on the big (and blue and beautiful) day. She’s a graphic design major from Jersey Shore.
New roommates Ember N. Erb (left), of Milton, pre-radiography, and Kallie A. Baltzley, of Wellsboro, pre-nursing, settle in.
Volunteering their help: Brendan G. Merritt (left), an electronics & computer engineering technology student from Barto, and Liam W. Patton, a welding technology student from Apollo, enjoy a break between hauls.
Those iconic blue bins are for more than moving! Sigma Pi brothers Kevin P. Kanning and AJ Zerrenner (in the bin) make the most out of their volunteer gig. Kanning is a welding & fabrication engineering technology student from Oakland, New Jersey, and Zerrenner is a residential construction technology & management student from Doylestown.
