A legacy of vision and values. A tradition of academic excellence. A future of great promise. That passion for success with honor at Penn State and beyond defines the Schreyer Honors College.

We say we are "shaping people who shape the world." This is why Mr. Schreyer used to say that he was "bullish" on our future, because Penn Staters are ready to make this world a better place.
