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.

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.
Penn College's sixth Wildcat Egg Hunt – bigger than ever, after a two-year pause necessitated by COVID-19 – saw about 120 children scampering about the main campus lawn early Sunday afternoon. "We started filling the 3,500 or so Easter eggs last week," said Chet Beaver, coordinator of veteran and military services, who has overseen the popular event since it began in 2015.
Pennsylvania College of Technology’s Jennifer N. Severson took first prize, for the second year in a row, in the Mrs. T’s National Pierogy Day Recipe Contest. Severson is head cook in CC Commons, one of nine dining units on campus. Her winning recipe is for pumpkin spice pierogies, featuring roasted root vegetables and pumpkin curry.
A pair of willing spokesmodels say "Cheers" with the day's beverage of choice. Unwinding with a beanbag toss or two ... ... as a stream of students sampled Rockstar's wares. The Rockstar truck and trailer visited Penn College on Wednesday, giving away free cans of energy drinks on the campus mall opposite the Keystone Dining Room patio.
