Edinboro At A Glance
Edinboro University of Pennsylvania, a multi-purpose institution of
higher learning, is one of the leading educational institutions in western
Pennsylvania. Located in the resort community of Edinboro, the
University is only 18 miles from Erie and within 100 miles of the edu-
cational and major population centers of Buffalo, Cleveland and
Pittsburgh.
Edinboro University boasts 43 buildings on a spacious 585-acre campus
which includes a five-acre lake, open fields and woods, six on-campus
residence halls for approximately 2,600 students, and a modern seven-
story library with more than 480,000 bound volumes and 1.3 million
microform units. In addition, Edinboro University in Erie The Porreco
Center consists of 27 acres and 11 buildings.
More than one-half of the faculty members at Edinboro University have
earned doctorates or the highest degree attainable in their field. Many of
them have been recognized nationally and internationally for their out-
standing research and scholarly accomplishments. In addition, a number
of faculty members have held state and national leadership roles in their
professional organizations. The student-faculty ratio is 18:1.
There are more than 100 student-related clubs and organizations which
offer a wide variety of activities. Students are involved with formal and
informal dances, movies, skiing trips, fraternities, sororities, etc. In addi-
tion, there are 16 choral and instrumental musical groups open to stu-
dents.
The Edinboro University Alumni Association has experienced dramatic
growth during the past several years and now has 40,000 members. The
alumni have played a major role in fund-raising efforts for student schol-
arships, and they continue to be some of the best ambassadors for
Edinboro University. Among the many graduate and professional
schools attended by recent Edinboro graduates are American University,
Berkeley, Eastman School of Music, Georgetown University, Hershey
Medical School and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Edinboro graduates have brought credit to the University in such posi-
tions as government officials, legislators, federal agents, corporate exec-
utives and administrators, and college presidents.
Students with exceptionally high academic aptitude scores and excellent
high school records are eligible to participate in the University's Honors
Program. One of the leading programs in the nation, the Edinboro
Honors Program has been used as a model by many colleges and uni-
versities.
The Office for Students with Disabilities administers a program dedicat-
ed to enhancing the University's commitment to equal opportunity for
the severely physically disabled. The campus supports the largest resi-
dency program of its kind in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and
the disabled population is one of the largest in the entire United States.
Edinboro's disabled students and many visitors benefit from a campus
which is almost completely accessible to the handicapped.
Recognizing that classroom learning provides only part of a complete
education, Edinboro University provides off-campus internships in busi-
nesses, industries and offices throughout the tri-state area. Students have
successfully completed internships with such organizations as General
Electric, the Cleveland Browns, CNN, Ford Motor Company, Disney
World, the American Cancer Society, and the Pennsylvania House of
Representatives.
An international education program provides educational opportunities
for students from 40 other countries. Visiting scholars from around the
world serve as resource individuals for area schools, businesses and
industries, in addition to providing special lectures, seminars and work-
shops for Edinboro students and faculty.
