Student reservists called to active duty

Seventeen students at Penn State Erie, The Behrend College, have been called to active duty in the U.S. military forces since the beginning of the spring semester as the nation prepared for war with Iraq. The two women and fifteen men are members of the military reserves who have already trained and served their country prior to call-up. A committee formed by the Office of Student Affairs has gathered the military mailing addresses for those who are serving so that members of the Behrend community can send them cards, letters, and care packages.
