"Where Beauty's At": Expressions of Black Visual Culture — Feb. 2–Sept. 9, Eberly Family Special Collections Library, 104 Paterno Library. Drawing upon Penn State's Special Collections and University Archives, the exhibition explores historical and creative works by Black writers and artists and considers the relationship between history, politics, creativity and visual expression.

This artist's illustration shows a cross-section of Sagittarius A*, the supermassive black hole near the center of the Milky Way galaxy. Researchers, led by Ruth Daly at Penn State, used a new approach to determine the black hole is spinning at about 60% of its maximum potential speed.
Berks THON dancers (from L to R) Manali Desai, Samantha Hagenbush, Sydney Bankert, and Mariem Hanna represented the campus during THON 2024 weekend, Feb. 16-18. Penn State Berks placed fifth among all the Commonwealth Campuses.
