Penn State is a top-ranked research university and Pennsylvania’s sole land-grant institution, founded with a mission of high-quality teaching, expert research, and global service. It was chartered in 1855 as one of the nation’s first colleges of agricultural science, with a goal to apply scientific principles to farming. The Penn State Nittany Lions logo has an interesting history. In 1983, Roy Parcels spoke to a table of Penn State power during a lunch, including legendary broadcaster Fran Fisher, athletic director Jim Tarman, assistant director Tim Curley, and Joe Paterno. Parcels’ pitch to put an image to the Nittany Lion was just too good to deny. The image of the blue and white Nittany Lion was created after that meeting and has been untouched ever since.
