Help Us Find The Ultimate Penn State Grandparents

Penn State has the largest alumni network in the world, and plenty of current students have a Happy Valley history that spans multiple generations. In fact, the university is what it is today because of those who came here before us.

Does your tailgate-loving gram finally deserve some time in the spotlight? We think so too.
