Penn State Berks has announced that its initiative formerly known as the Center for Service Learning and Community-based Research is going through some changes this fall.
Students, faculty and staff at Penn State Berks will welcome family and alumni to campus when the college hosts its annual Family and Homecoming Weekend, from Thursday, Sept. 20, to Sunday, Sept. 23. This year’s theme is “Rocking Through the Fifties” and will celebrate the college’s founding on its 60th anniversary.
Thirty-two students, 10 faculty and staff members, and 25 community volunteers joined forces as part of the Penn State Berks Day of Service on Sunday, Aug. 26.
In celebration of the college’s 60th anniversary, the Penn State Berks Office of Academic Affairs is hosting three events in September which will showcase the college’s land-grant mission of teaching, research and community service.
The Penn State Berks Human Movement and Research Center will host the college’s second annual National Biomechanics Day from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. on April 11. Approximately 125 high school students and chaperones are registered for the program.
