Three Penn State students (wearing matching blue t-shirts) lay brochures about their team's home on a bench. One student gives another a "bear hug" when they learn they won third-place in the 2007 Solar Decathlon Communication contest.

Working hard on their communications activities, Penn State students spread the word about sustainability. Here, they show their elation at bringing home a third-place finish in that contest.
