Italianist Spotlight: Anna Centrella, 2015-2016 NIAF on Campus Fellow (1 of 4)

Penn State sophomore Anna Centrella was recently named a NIAF on Campus Fellow. The National Italian American Foundation, an organization that has been supporting Italian American culture since 1975, launched the program to engage young leaders in the Italian American community. Anna, a double Finance and Italian major, is among the first fifteen fellows and has been invited to participate in the foundation’s 40th Anniversary Gala in Washington D.C. She’ll be sending updates and photos about the weekend events and her role as a fellow.

What do you expect going into the events this weekend?

I not sure what to expect, but I am really looking forward to meeting other Italian Americans, mostly other students, but also faculty members… and trying to figure out how we can make the Italian American identity a lot stronger on campus and get more people involved.
