Penn States Atheist/Agnostic Association builds community of like-minded skeptics without God
By Nick Capri | For the Collegian 3 hrs ago
There was a light crowd in 105 Willard for the Atheist/Agnostic Association’s meeting, but President Sean Penfield wasn’t concerned.
“It’s difficult to get non-religious people to come to a weekly meeting, which is part of the reason they became atheists,” Penfield (junior-security and risk analysis and risk management) said with a smile.
More interested in National Geographic than vacation Bible school while growing up, Penfield graduated high school in a class of about one hundred people in a town with fourteen churches, and was not the most popular kid in his town. Penfield “found the label” of atheist in high school, and joined AAA in the spring of his freshman year.
The Atheist/Agnostic Association seeks “to create a sense of community for people that often times when they come to college don’t have that sense of community,” Penfield said.
