Wildcat Wednesday promotes campus pride, tribal event

This week's Wildcat Wednesday instilled Penn College Pride, then used that spirit to promote Thursday's campus visit by the Piscataway Nation Singers & Dancers.

The Piscataway were the first Native Americans to encounter Capt. John Smith along the banks of the Potomac River in 1608. Today, the touring troupe – performing from 3:30-4:30 p.m. Thursday in Penn's Inn (Bush Campus Center, second floor) – carries on the long-standing traditions, culture and heritage of their Indigenous ancestors.

Watch for more Wildcat Wednesdays, recurring activities provided through the Office of Student Engagement.
