What is the Alumni Associations role in operating the Alumni Tour program?
The Alumni Association adds the Penn State connection by supplying our travelers with travel insurance options, traveler biographical information, and international connections with alumni and students abroad when circumstances allow. Most trips include Penn State hosts to accompany the group and serve as hosts for a private Penn State reception. In addition, all travelers receive special Penn State gifts as mementos of their trip. The Alumni Association staff is also available to assist travelers in making arrangements for deviations from the standard trip and reconfirming travel arrangements. Our staff will also interact with the travel companies on behalf of our travelers to obtain answers to questions or resolve problems. If you need any assistance please don’t hesitate to call our Alumni Association travel office at 800-548-5466, option 5.
