Following the lead of metal sculptor and welding instructor Michael K. Patterson, welding majors at Penn College employed their skills to create "Student Bodies," abstract human forms that line the main campus mall. The project, one of three outdoor art installations dedicated during the college's 2014 Centennial celebration, is chronicled in a new YouTube video. "The school obviously gives us a lot. A lot of skills. A lot of stuff we can take out into the world," says Peter K. Ptacek,  a welding and fabrication engineering technology major from Lewisburg. "It's just really nice to be able to leave something behind."
