Surprised? College Online brings the best out of JC Athletics!

-Theo Weinberger ’21, Communication POE, California Skater Dude

Maybe this sounds like an ideal college experience for you? Studying from home may sound like paradise for some, but for others it quickly became clear that not all aspects of life at Juniata College are as fruitful when recreated at home.
