The giant 30-by-60 foot American flag outside the Gilmour Center is a focal point of the college's main entrance and can be seen from miles around, due to its enormous size.
The interior of the Gilmour Center is just as striking as the exterior, offering open views, comfortable seating, and plenty of light, pictured above.
Pictured below, the second floor is also home to "Veronica's Garden," an indoor terrarium that was added in 2019, in honor of Veronica M. Muzic, who served in both teaching and administrative capacities at Penn College and Williamsport Area Community College.
