The mall has it all
Class is in session
at Penn State Fayette's recently opened campus site at the Uniontown
Mall. The site offers credit and continuing education courses applicable
to certificate programs, associate and baccalaureate degrees. While
it is especially convenient for Uniontown Mall employees, its location
also puts a Penn State campus within walking distance for many Uniontown
residents. Kelly Hunt, mall site coordinator and continuing education
representative, will serve as the contact person for the community.
Frozen fangs
Sharp, glittering icicles
hang from a bending bough like the long teeth on some long-gone prehistoric
beast. The abstract ice art is actually the product of water sprayed
on branches at one of the farms on campus.
