UNIVERSITY PARK – Those who missed the Penn State Town Hall Forum held on the University Park campus on Wednesday, Nov. 30, can view the event online.
The event, hosted by Penn State’s University Park Undergraduate Association (UPUA), Council of Commonwealth Student Governments (CCSG) and Graduate Student Association (GSA), was designed to provide a forum for students to engage University administrators in an open discussion about the recent events at the University Park campus.
Penn State President Rodney Erickson, along with other key administrators at the University, fielded questions from a capacity crowd of students about the recent crisis, as well as what the plan is for Penn State to move forward. The forum provided administrators the opportunity to hear what students have to say and gauge how recent events are affecting people throughout the University system statewide.
Sam Richards, senior lecturer in sociology, and Laurie Mulvey, lecturer in sociology, moderated the forum. The other administration panelists joining Erickson were Rob Pangborn, acting executive vice president and provost; Madlyn Hanes, vice president for Commonwealth Campuses; Craig Weidemann, vice president for Outreach; Terrell Jones, vice provost for Educational Equity; Damon Sims, vice president for Student Affairs; Hank Foley, vice president for research and dean of the Graduate School; and Rod Kirsch, senior vice president for Development and Alumni Relations.
