Penn Staters are not only high academic achievers, they’re doers— nurtured by a culture that encourages setting lofty goals and investing the effort to achieve them. They are molded in an environment that values success, teamwork, and service to others, and are intent upon living inspired, purposeful lives.
Universities talk about producing leaders, but ask employers where they go to find individuals who inspire others, know the value of hard work, and lead by example. They go to Penn State.
PENN STATE POSITIONING: “INSPIRED DOERS”
