This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at PSU chapter.

Her Campus Penn State spent the afternoon in the HUB-Robeson Center this past Thursday speaking with students about International Women’s Day and discussing what it means to be a woman. Collegiettes were asked to write down the most important qualities or capabilities of the modern woman and smile for the camera! In exchange, they received some fabulous freebies from our #HCSurvivalKits just in time for spring break. The event was a huge success and helped bring the conversation of women’s rights and equality to the Penn State campus. Be on the lookout for an upcoming feature article for a full recap!
