Welcome to State of State

"A conference by Penn State, for Penn State."

Founded in 2013, State of State is a student-run organization at Penn State University, committed to facilitating a dialogue within the university community about important Penn State-related issues. This dialogue culminates every year in a spring conference at which we bring together student, faculty, administration, alumni, and community leaders to speak about a variety of Penn State and State College topics, ranging from student life to mental health to town-and-gown relations. Our goal is to bring together passionate change-makers who can make our community stronger and more successful. Join this ongoing conversation “by Penn State, for Penn State” at our year-round special events and in February for our annual State of State conference.

Congratulations to our new Executive Director, Clare McHugh!

Thanks for attending our 2018 conference! See you next year!

We are always working to improve our conference and maintain our mission of important discussion. Therefore, we have created a questionnaire that we would like to share with you in the hopes to gather critical feedback from as many individuals at Penn State as possible.
