Penn State Intercom......October
4, 2001
Dedication of the Behrend Center of Pennsylvania State College on Oct. 30, 1948, took place on the west patio of the Glenhill Farmhouse and drew the interest of many local dignitaries.
Oct. 30 still is celebrated as Founders' Day.
Janitorial help was minimal
in the early life of Penn State Behrend, so students took a class day
off for the annual "Work Day" held every spring. Students were even asked
to bring their own rakes, shovels and cleaning equipment.
The Glenhill Farmhouse now
serves as the administrative building at Penn State Erie.
Patriotic lion
An American flag
was planted in front of the
Nittany Lion shrine on the University Park campus by a passer-by. Several
symbols of patriotism continue to be visible on the University's campuses
systemwide in the wake of the Sept. 11 tragedy.
