Paterno Catholic Center

Suzanne Pohland Paterno Catholic Center

Dedicated in 2011, the Catholic Student Faith Center is named for Suzanne Pohland Paterno, and serves as a gathering place for all Catholic students attending the University Park campus. It is also home to the Holy Family Chapel, where the morning daily Mass takes place during the academic year at 9:15am, Monday–Thursday.

The center also hosts student group meetings in its Great Room and Conference Rooms, and has a library, smaller meeting rooms, and gathering spaces downstairs.

Various student groups, including Newman Catholic Student Association, the Graduate & Young Professionals Group, and smaller bible study groups also meet here on a regular basis. While the building is open (hours vary), there is usually a Newman officer at the front desk.
