I love Penn State!, October 13, 2009
This review is from: Ice Cream U: The Story of the Nation's Most Successful Collegiate Creamery (Hardcover)
This well written, easy read is a fun, informative coffee-table album, filled with historical black and white and modern color photographs. These 72 pages are a scoop of Happy Valley served up with unabashed Nittany Lion Pride, a must-have for every alumni. Non Penn Staters beware: this tantalizing glimpse of the charm and grace of the University will leave you salivating for your own taste of your favorite flavor. Be forewarned; prolonged exposure to Berkey Creamery products may lead to matriculation and ultimately graduation.
Read about Penn State's Role in the growth of Pennsylvania's dairy business. Look back with a brief history of ice cream. Revisit the early days of the Patternson Hall and the Community Dairy Business. Which of your favorite flavors learned to be great at the Ice Cream Short Course? Not so long ago, Borland Lab was the source of Ice Cream sales. And what of the current Ice Cream phenomenon? Look to the future of the Berkey Creamery. Smiling student servers offer up the Hall of Fame flavors. Meet the dedicated faculty in a nostalgic family album of the Creamery staff. Follow the milk from cow to cone. And most importantly, meet the Holsteins, the sweet and lovely bovine ladies to whom we owe so very much.
I love Penn State, and you should love your school so much too!
