Look for the Penn State Karate Club at the Student Involvement Fair. The event is one of the best opportunities to get involved in campus life at Penn State. Student Organizations set up displays and have members on site talk to visitors one on one about what their organization does on campus. Involvement in co-curricular experiences is one of the most important parts of having a successful college career! You will make friends, learn all about Penn State, and develop invaluable skills you will use in life beyond Penn State. Wondering where to start? Start at the Involvement Fair! Look for the Penn State Karate Club table!

It’s with great sadness that we announce the passing of Master Angi Uezu.
We are grateful for his dedication to Isshin Ryu and many years of helping others.

Special Olympics Pennsylvania has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2023 Summer Games scheduled from June 8-10 at Penn State University due to air quality concerns. While this news is incredibly disappointing for all of us, the health and safety of our athletes, volunteers, staff and partners is our top priority.
People with intellectual disabilities have higher rates of adverse health conditions and are therefore at greater risk. Based on the best information available from a variety of reputable sources, we do not believe conditions in State College would permit us to safely conduct these Games.
While canceling events is truly heartbreaking for the athletes who have trained for months – as well as for our volunteers, family, friends, staff and board – we know that our love of sport can’t compare to the importance of protecting the health and safety of all involved.
