PSU Altoona Food Services

Penn State Erie offers an opportunity for students interested in living with others who share common interests and goals. Special Living Options (SLOs) are open to all students provided they have an interest in the theme. Students interested in a SLO can contact the Housing and Food Service office for more information about how to request an SLO.

The following SLOs are available at Penn State Erie:

Freshman Interest Groups (FIGs)
This interest house is a collaborative effort between Housing and Food Services, Residence Life, Student Affairs, and the College's four academic schools to better meet the academic and interpersonal needs of freshman students. The FIG program co-enrolls students in classes related to their area of academic interest. This program is an invitation-only SLO. A majority of the FIGs are assigned to Senat Hall

Honors Program
The Honors Special Living Option is available to students who share similar academic goals and are enrolled in the Honors Program. Fostering the scholars' growth through activities with faculty, the Erie Honors House is run in conjunction with The Schreyer Honors College. Behrend students also have the opportunity to participate in the Hall Council and the Community Standards Board.
