Everyone loves leftovers, right? As we close out Fall 2024, here are a few random events photographed this semester by Student Photographer Matt B. Deane, who is graduating in mechatronics technology.
Penn College’s Student Government Association closed out the fall semester with meetings that covered a range of student engagement and campus wellness topics and also presented the opportunity to socialize with the vice president for academic affairs and provost.
A few of the fun festivities “dropping” in December to close out the Fall 2024 academic year were the annual Snowball and the first-ever Duck Drop. Both events were hosted by Penn College's Office of Student Engagement.
Pennsylvania College of Technology's Esports program has won its first championship. The Overwatch 2 team captured the Fall 2024 National Association of Collegiate Esports Varsity+ championship, beating the University of North Carolina–Greensboro 3-1 in the final match and finishing with a 7-1 season.
Honoring Native American Heritage Month, Penn College hosted a November performance by the Piscataway Nation Dancers & Singers. Led by Piscataway Chief Mark Tayac, the 29th generation of hereditary chiefs, the troupe hails from Tayac Territory, near Port Tobacco, Maryland.
The Student Organization and Leadership Center was home to this month’s Service Saturday – “Cozy for a Cause.” Over a dozen Penn College students came together to create 12 “no-sew blankets” to donate to local nonprofits for the increasingly chilly autumn (and soon-to-be winter) season.
The campus community and public are reminded of the performance by the Piscataway Nation Dancers & Singers, set for 3:30 to 4:30 p.m. Wednesday in the Professional Development Center's Mountain Laurel Room. All are invited to enjoy.

True to its name, Penn College's Student Engagement Office rolls out a regular range of activities for the campus community’s enjoyment, education and outreach. Celebrating the upcoming Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, “Henna and Hot Fudge” offered a fun way to learn about the art of mehndi and enjoy a “make-your-own” dessert. Stirring in some coffee and activism, “Café con Amigos” and “Si, Se Puede” were among the activities honoring Hispanic Heritage Month.
