A little bit about us:

• Our chapter was founded in 1947
• We have been recognized by Penn State as an alumni "Chapter of Distinction" five years in a row
  
• Our chapter has one of the largest scholarship endowments, thanks to generous donations
  
• As of July 2016, Connecticut has the largest percentage of alums that are members of the Penn State Alumni Association (that's 37%, higher than the nationwide average of 29%)
  
• Organize bus service for students at holiday breaks
• Organize a tailgate at homecoming
• We have over 130 dues paying members and about 1700 Penn State alumni in our geographic region (most of Connecticut and parts of Massachusetts)
• We give back to the community: freshman scholarship, annual freshman sendoff, volunteer at college nights, Habitat for Humanity
• We have fun, gather for football games, sell football tickets, and more
