Pemi's Pals

We understand college can be a major adjustment and takes time to get used to. During this transitional time, we want to offer incoming students the opportunity to tackle any daunting events with a friend. Pemi’s Pals, led by upperclassmen, is the chance for students to navigate the new and unfamiliar with a trusted companion by their side. These pals can accompany you to a variety of events on campus--sporting events and working out, the theatre, student organization meetings, the dining hall and more! Don’t let the unfamiliar keep you from doing things you’ve dreamed of doing. And who knows? You might find a lifelong pal.

Family & Parent Podcast

Loved Ones in the Loop is for any loved one of our students. Hosted by Student Life Staff, each episode will bring in one of our campus partners to discuss what is going on with students and how loved ones can support that student, regardless of their location. With new episodes each month, we look forward to partnering with you to help support PSU students!
