     There is rarely a dull moment on The Pennsylvania State University campus,
     also known as Happy Valley. With around more than 1,000 clubs and
     organizations, there are broad opportunities to get involved in campus
     life. The school mascot is the Nittany Lion, and teams compete in the
     Division I Big Ten Conference. The football team plays in Beaver Stadium,
     which is one of the largest arenas in North America, which seats nearly
     107,000 fans. Penn State is home to a thriving Greek system with more than
     70 sororities and fraternities. More than 16,000 students volunteer in
     THON, the largest student-run philanthropy in the world. Students raise
     money for pediatric cancer research and awareness throughout the year and
     participate in a 46-hour dance marathon - no sitting or sleeping allowed.
     Freshmen must live in one of five housing areas on campus. Across the
     street from campus is State College, a bustling small town with an array of
     coffee shops, restaurants, shops and bars populated mostly by students.
     Surrounded by mountains, the school is also close to skiing, snowboarding
     and hiking opportunities.

     Located in the Oakland neighborhood, Pitt’s campus is a 3-mile trip from
     bustling downtown Pittsburgh. The city is home to powerhouse professional
     sports teams, such as the Steelers and Penguins, and dozens of unique
     cultural centers, like the Andy Warhol Museum and the Phipps Conservatory
     and Botanical Gardens. Pitt students get free admission to these and other
     select museums throughout the school year. Because Pittsburgh is bordered
     by three rivers, kayaking, sailing and fishing opportunities are plentiful.
     City buses stop every 10 to 15 minutes on campus, and students can ride
     public transportation into the city for free with school ID. Freshmen do
     not have to live on campus. Pitt has a sizable Greek community of nearly 40
     fraternities and sororities. Students in Arts and Sciences majors can earn
     hands-on credits in internships, research and teaching with the help of the
     university’s Office of Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative
     Activity. The Pittsburgh Panthers sports teams compete in the NCAA Division
     I Atlantic Coast Conference. Pitt students are notorious for their avid
     support at sporting events, particularly for forming a riotous cheering
     section known as the Oakland Zoo at basketball games. Students who attend
     the most home sporting events get priority purchasing when game tickets are
     in high demand through the school’s Loyalty Points system.
