Celebrating Nittany Lions Around the World

The mission of Penn State Homecoming is to celebrate tradition and instill pride in all members of the Penn State family through active engagement of students, alumni, faculty, and staff across the community.

Penn State Homecoming is one of the largest student-run homecoming organizations in the country, which aims to celebrate tradition and instill pride in all members of the Penn State family through active engagement of students, alumni, faculty, and staff across the community. Our organization is comprised of many student volunteers who donate their time to creating a multitude of events that make the Homecoming celebration a yearlong event.

Students work with their peers, alumni, corporate sponsors, and various other community members to help make Homecoming Week and our other annual events occur. Homecoming maintains lasting relationships with those in and outside of Penn State University to ensure a successful celebration each year.

Each year my favorite part seems to be the same. Coming down to State College and getting to experience all the hard work we have put into making this happen. Finally getting to meet the court members and some of the committee member face to face and building on that Penn State pride. Homecoming really helps build that connection to the University for a virtual student and seeing it happen is the best part.

– Erica Armstrong, 2023-2024 Executive Director

Penn State Homecoming is about celebrating tradition and history that makes the Penn State community proud.
