Be A Part From The Start
Picture this: It's the night before your first day of classes at Penn State and you find yourself walking with freshly made friends towards Rec Hall. You hear the drums pounding and the chants roaring, the feeling is almost electric. It is time for Be a Part From the Start.
A Warm Welcome
Lion Ambassadors are honored to have the opportunity of welcoming the new class of Penn State students. By sponsoring and organizing BAPFTS, inviting community leaders, athletes, coaches, the Blue Band, and several other student clubs and organizations, we are able to introduce brand new students to the vibrant and amazing community of Penn State.
