State College: Penn State and Happy Valley
State College sits in the middle of Centre County, surrounded by ridges of the Allegheny Mountains in the valley known informally as Happy Valley. The borough grew up around Pennsylvania State University, chartered in 1855 as the Farmers' High School of Pennsylvania and now the flagship land-grant institution of the commonwealth. The main campus enrolls roughly 47,000 undergraduate and graduate students and employs thousands more.
Beaver Stadium, the home of Penn State Nittany Lions football, seats 106,572 people, making it one of the largest stadiums in the Western Hemisphere. On home game Saturdays the stadium becomes effectively the third-largest population center in Pennsylvania. The Bryce Jordan Center hosts basketball, concerts, and commencement.
The Nittany Mall, the Downtown district along Beaver Avenue and College Avenue, and the Atherton Street corridor form the main commercial areas. The Penn State Creamery, located on campus, has operated since 1865 and trained a young Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield through its ice cream short course.
The town's economy is essentially inseparable from the university. Graduate research in materials science, meteorology, and geoscience supports several spinoff companies. The Applied Research Laboratory works on Navy acoustic and propulsion contracts.
