Penn State Altoona students traveled to Loíza, Puerto Rico through the campus’ Alternative Spring Break program. In this picture, they take a break for a quick pose during clean-up efforts at a local Boys & Girls Club. Soon after, the youth participants arrived on site for their after-school program, during which the Penn State students engaged with them by playing Bingo, shooting hoops, playing soccer and simply being in the moment with them.
Bhagawat Dulal, a senior studying computer science at Penn State Harrisburg, traveled to Germany as part of a faculty-led embedded course. The tour, which focused on World War II history, included exploring Nuremberg; seeing the Dachau concentration camp site; viewing exhibits at the Obersalzberg Documentation Center; viewing art at Neues Schloss Schleibheim; and standing atop Zugspitze, the tallest peak in Germany. “The trip to Germany through study abroad was an amazing experience," Dulal said. "Seeing the history and culture up close taught me so much, and it’s something I’ll always remember."
