The Penn State Behrend Alumni Society offers a variety of rewarding activities and opportunities to make a positive difference at the college while networking with fellow alumni. By building a tradition of pride and involvement, the Penn State Behrend Alumni Society upholds the nationally recognized standard of Penn State achievement and excellence.
