📖 Snowden Library
Snowden Library, located in the Wendle Hall academic center, is an ideal place for studying and doing research. The layout of the four-floor library makes it easy for students to find the right learning environment for their needs. The first floor is designated for group projects, class meetings, and research, while subsequent floors gradually get quieter as you progress upwards. The third floor features the Academic Resource Center, Writing Center, and Math Center, where accomplished students and staff teach study skills, provide subject-specific tutoring, and help students edit their writing.
👨🏫 Lifelong Mentors and Friends
With a 12:1 student-to-faculty ratio, you don’t have to fight to be seen— it’s inevitable.
Your classes won’t just be about lecturing and listening. You’ll engage in discussions, debates, workshops, translations, exhibitions, and experiments. You’ll go beyond the four walls of a classroom—modeling the Euclidean Algorithm with frisbees on the Quad or studying water quality with Eastern hellbenders in Loyalsock Creek. You don’t have to wait in line behind graduate students to get access to advanced equipment and high-impact experiences— it all starts day one.
Our experiential learning model turns professors into lifelong mentors and friends, and students into co-authors and research partners.
