More than 160 employers were on Pennsylvania College of Technology's main campus and at the Schneebeli Earth Science Center on Oct. 18, recruiting for nearly 1,900 full-time jobs, part-time positions and internships at the Career Fair. Greatly adding to the experience was the presence of blue-ribboned alumni, returning to Penn College on behalf of their postgraduate employers. The Main Campus Career Fair (with opportunities for all students) was held in Bardo Gymnasium during the afternoon; the Natural Resources Management Fair (for majors in that school) was held earlier in the day at the ESC south of Williamsport.
