Who are we?
We are Penn State! The Lake Erie Chapter, on behalf of the Penn State Alumni Association, provides continuity and connection to Penn State through fun and rewarding activities for the Lake Erie area alumni and friends.
What do we do?
Our goal is to keep the Penn State spirit alive and well in northwestern Pennsylvania. We do this through community services and social activities. The Chapter also funds the Robert W. Sparks Scholarship which awards grants to Penn State students from northwestern PA. To date, our Chapter contribution to the Sparks Scholarship is more than $53,000. The Behrend College Athletic Department
