The Student Veterans Association and Student Government Association from Penn State Mont Alto recently collaborated to raise $592 to benefit the Franklin County Veterans Affairs MilitaryShare program through a Green Line Bracelet donation fundraiser. Partners from Penn State Mont Alto and the Franklin County Office of Veterans Affairs include, from left, Zach Albright, Student Government Association President; Stephen Grace, Franklin County Veterans Affairs; and S. LeMar Best, Student Veterans Association President.
Student-led distribution of green bracelets on the Penn State Mont Alto campus has helped area veterans and their families access non-perishable food, milk, eggs and meat through the Franklin County Office of Veterans Affairs.
A new research program for students will be launched this coming fall: The Vice President for Commonwealth Campuses Undergraduate Student Research Fund aims to support student-led projects in different fields. Participants will acquire hands-on experience in research, scholarship, and artistic efforts. They will be responsible for creating their own research problems, study proposals, methodologies, and presenting their findings.
Penn State Mont Alto honored students and faculty members achieving academic, leadership and teaching excellence during the annual Academic and Leadership Awards Ceremony in the Multipurpose Activities Center on April 30.
