Dr. Kenneth K. Bateman Outstanding Alumni: Shelly Schorer (MBA '02)

Dr. Kenneth K. Bateman Outstanding Alumni: Michael Gray (BA '03)
Most students must acclimate to being at a university that is a few hours or sometimes a few states away from home. For Michael, the culture shock was a bit more significant. He came to PSU as a political science major after spending 11 years of his childhood in Puebla, Mexico.

________________

PSU has worked with Google for over a decade to provide free GUSMail accounts to alumni, students, faculty, and staff. Google recently changed its policy.
