Summary: A video history of Penn State University shows agricultural and technical/enineering education as supportive of the country's needs throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries particularly. Uses many archive images and motion pictures from the Penn State University Archives Special Collections Library, Centre County Historical Society at the Centre Furnace Mansion, and the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration to weave together stories of significant persons and societal influences in Penn State's history. Features unique Penn State stories, such as a large student-run dance marathon to raise money for pediatric cancer, the founding of the Hershey S. Milton Medical School, and Joe Paterno's successful Nittany Lions football program.
