Penn State Capital Day Slated For March 18
Penn State’s annual Capital Day will return to an in-person capacity for the first time since 2022.
The advocacy event is set for Monday, March 18, in Harrisburg for students, staff, and Commonwealth Campus representatives to meet with elected officials from across Pennsylvania and discuss funding for Penn State.
Capital Day 2023 featured 6,700 Penn State supporters and over 13,000 messages to the Pennsylvania General Assembly and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro.
“Advocacy during Capital Day is a crucial part of our relationship with the Pennsylvania Legislature,” Vice President for Government and Community Relations Mike Stefan said in a release. “It’s important that elected officials hear from Penn State students, families, faculty and staff, alumni, and all Penn Staters so they can see how vital the commonwealth’s support of Penn State is to so many throughout Pennsylvania.”
Any Penn State student, parent, alumni, employee, or supporter can become an advocate to connect with elected officials to encourage funding for higher education and campaign for the university.
