°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê

When visionary leader Henry Carver came to °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê, he saw something in the hardworking residents of a small town in eastern Pennsylvania. So he carved out a spot on a hill to make a place where education would be accessible, work ethic would be non-negotiable, and Huskies would always have a home.

Welcome to °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê, the only ‘town’ in Pennsylvania and the home of °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê – where small-town charm bumps right into big city opportunities.

Just a short walk from campus you’ll be in downtown °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê and on historic Main Street. That’s where you’ll find a variety of boutique shops, galleries, eateries and office buildings as well as the Town Hall, County Courthouse, Public Library and U.S. Post Office. And don’t forget to visit the 44,700-square-foot Greenly Center, home of the Office of Corporate and Continuing Education, the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê Foundation and the Sekisui Professional Experience Lab.

Need to get away from the hustle and bustle of campus, head down to the Town Park and enjoy some time relaxing by the river. Looking for a professional live theatre, the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê Theatre Ensemble has you covered. Or maybe you’re into fairs and carnivals like the annual Renaissance Jamboree and of course the famous °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê Fair – the largest fair in Pennsylvania.
