A $950,000 gift from a philanthropist will enable academically qualified, area high school students to take courses free of charge, earning college credits and early exposure to university-level learning. Starting in spring 2026, the dual enrollment program at Penn State Hazleton will expand access to higher education by covering tuition and providing students with academic support and college readiness resources.
Penn State Hazleton's annual trick-or-treat night is scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 28, from 5 to 6:30 p.m. on the Sports and Recreation Field at the campus. The event is organized by the Penn State Hazleton Lion Ambassadors and sponsored by the Hazleton Chapter of the Penn State Alumni Association, the Penn State Hazleton Alumni Society, Hershey and Amazon AVP1.
As part of our regular “We Are!” feature, we recognize 21 Penn Staters who have gone above and beyond what’s asked of them in their work at the University.
