Hintz Family Alumni Center

Home to the Penn State Alumni Association, the Hintz Family Alumni Center blends traditions, old and new. On its east end, it incorporates the President’s House, the residence of every Penn State president from 1864 through 1970. It is the oldest building on campus. The remaining portion of the alumni center was opened in 2001. Its construction was supported by a gift from Penn Staters Edward and Helen Hintz and their family. The Penn State Alumni Association, founded in 1870, has more than 174,000 dues-paying members, making it the world’s largest organization of its kind. The alumni center welcomes the public during business hours and on most weekends
