It’s Makeover Season!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at PSU chapter.


Hello Penn State! Can you believe what’s happening to the HUB lawn? Looks like the campus is having a reconstructive surgery for a while. Bye bye HUB pickup games, seas of tanners and green grass. Hello construction site!

But don’t panic: the lawn will be back as soon as construction is finished. (Word is they’re giving ol’ Henderson Building–the one in the background–a facelift.) Take the time to enjoy what’s there now and consider it an opportunity to check out the rest of the awesome places around campus! (Because, in case you haven’t noticed, there are a ton.)

So what do you say, loves? Where are some good places to go to hang out on these crossover winter-fall days? What will you miss most about the HUB lawn? 

Infinite x’s, o’s and Penn State pride!

Jen Kach is the most enthusiastic English major you'll ever meet at Penn State. Not a drop of British blood runs in her veins, but with her passion for literature and creative writing, she may as well have been born in the country of Shakespeare and Charles Dickens! Once she graduates from Happy Valley, she hopes to take the publishing world by storm, working either in book publishing or the magazine industry. At the top of her list, though, are novels...her ultimate dream is to write several of them! At Penn State, she is the managing editor for Valley magazine, a writing center tutor, and a member of Ed2010. An ardent believer in La Vie Boheme, she is in love with love, art, coffee shops, music, and classic films. She loves the little things in life, will never forget seeing the Goo Goo Dolls live in concert, and firmly believes that, when all else is said and done, there is no problem that Jane Austen can't fix.
