Lectures
Committee members plan and bring distinguished speakers to speak at Penn State, and they also run all aspects of the event themselves.

Committee members plan novelty events such as laser tag, silent disco, and escape rooms for students. They also bring comedians once or twice a semester. The Special Events committee has a similar process of planning and working the event as concerts.
