Staff
The staff for the Pennypacker Experience are the Advisory Board Members, Program Assistants (PA's) and Resident Assistants (RA's). A list of the staff can be found on this website; please feel free to contact them at any time. The PA's are your main point of contact with the Pennypacker Experience Program. They are hare to be resource people and mentors (or big sisters/brothers). They are students from various majors and have experienced freshman life at Penn State. They know what you are facing as a first year student and are here to help -- but you have to ask. The PA role differs from that of the RA. It is important that you understand the PA's reside in the residence hall to give you guidance, mentorship and a shoulder to lean on during your first year at Penn State. While the RA's can also be seen as a helpful resource in the residence hall, they will be responsible for enforcing the rules of the residence hall.
