Our school is best known for our football team and sadly our partying. I think that our rank on the biggest party schools is higher than our football team's ranking, but both are a good time.

Though a lot of people think of "parties" when they hear about Penn State, it also has a strong ability to bring many people across the country to cheer for it in athletics and has a strong academic field or professors, grad students, and many opportunities for the undergraduate.

Penn State is best known for JoePa's football, tailgating, parties, THON, ice cream, research, alumni...and the biggest collection of 20,000 of the pretties girls in the middle of nowhere!

When most people think of Penn State, football and school spirit come to mind first. They aren't wrong. School spirit is a major part of Penn State. The sense of pride most students find in each of PSU's accomplishments is unlike anything else you'll ever feel. Between THON, JoePa, football, the lion, the campus and the education, you cannot go wrong. I feel that PSU is best known for the love the students feel for the school as well as the experience that is Penn State.
