Penn State Altoona faculty members Brian Onishi, associate professor of philosophy, and Jeff Stoyanoff, assistant professor of English and women's, gender and sexuality studies, released a new episode of their "Horror Joy" podcast, titled "Horror Nostalgia: The Rack with Tom Deady and ‘Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.’"
The event showcases individuals or groups involved in significant academic field trips or scholarly projects, study abroad/study away, research and creative activities, internships or clinical work, community-based studies, or related work through student clubs.
Traveling abroad offers students a chance to grow academically, personally, and socially. Penn State Altoona’s Study Away programs allow students to experience new cultures, challenge preconceived notions, and develop leadership skills that will shape their future. These experiences — whether for a week or a semester — foster empathy and global understanding.
While the benefits are vast, many students face financial barriers to participating in these transformative programs. You can help make these opportunities more accessible by supporting our Study Away programs.

Seven students from the Integrated Social Sciences Research Lab (ISSRL) at Penn State Altoona recently worked with faculty from the Douglas W. Pollock Center at Penn State Harrisburg and representatives from the Pennsylvania State Police, Penn State Health, and the Pennsylvania Psychiatric Institute to provide a free crisis management training workshop to first responders and community members in the Dauphin County region.
