Penn State University Libraries - SALA Study in Rome

We have posted this page on our site in order to assist Penn State Students who are participating in the SALA Study in Rome Program. We will be adding more information periodically and would appreciate any feedback that you might have.

SALA Study in Rome Wiki:

http://salastudyinrome.pbworks.com

We have moved portions of this site to a wiki, mostly those that pertain to living and studying in Rome. Some things are best left to those who are actually there. We are looking for current and former students & faculty to contribute and keep the wiki current and accurate. If you would like to help, please check out the Contribute to the Site portion of the wiki.
