A few short years ago, Penn State Abington senior Jenny Denison engaged in a life and death struggle with an eating disorder. The outlook was bleak before she finally chose recovery. Now, she plans to help others by sharing her story.
Penn State, along with other universities that have a presence in the Philadelphia region, has learned from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) that there have been vague threats on social media of violence at "a Philadelphia area University." The FBI indicated that similarly vague threats have been made on social media across the country in the last several days.
Penn State Abington's Alexia Hudson-Ward and her American Library Association (ALA) colleagues marked Banned Books Week by sharing excerpts from controversial titles. Hudson-Ward chose a passage from "The Autobiography of Malcolm X," dedicating it to ALA member Cynthia Hurd. Hurd was among nine people murdered inside a Charleston, S.C., church this summer.
Four women with deep connections to Penn State Abington merged art and poetry into a soulful exhibit and performance staged at a historic space in Philadelphia's trendy Old City neighborhood.
