A number of Penn State campuses hosted watch events and educational activities surrounding the solar eclipse on April 8. One campus — Penn State Behrend — fell within 100% totality of solar eclipse.
Thousands of visitors crowded into the soccer/lacrosse complex at Penn State Behrend, in Erie, to view the eclipse in totality. Cheers rippled across the field as the sun’s corona became visible.
