UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – Penn State Athletics announced the creation of the Nittany Lion Feedback Program. The Nittany Lion Feedback Program is being established to engage and listen to fans about their experiences and thoughts surrounding Penn State's 31 teams.
The feedback program will be a virtual initiative consisting of a group of 2,000 total fans, across multiple demographics, who will be asked for input via online surveys 1-2 times per month throughout the year. Penn State fans play a very important role and it is important to engage the passionate and loyal alumni, students and fans to receive feedback on all aspects of Penn State Athletics.
In developing the Nittany Lion Feedback Program, Penn State Athletics anticipates accomplishing several goals focused on improving conversation and understanding of fans' needs and preferences.
The goals for this program are:
- Allow for a better "You Said, We Listened" communication format over the long term.
- Gain highly representative feedback from all corners of our fan base.
- Pilot new ideas, projects or methods prior to implementation.
- Focus Athletics' time and resources on initiatives which matter most to fans.
The Nittany Lion Feedback Program will have one-year terms, following the academic and athletic calendars, with the inaugural term running from March 2021 to May 2022, due to the program launch timing. Members of the program may have the opportunity to participate for additional years.
Select fans will be receiving email invitations in the next week with the opportunity to apply for this program. Athletics is taking proactive steps for the Nittany Lion Feedback Program to be as representative of our entire fan base as possible. Fans chosen for invitation will be spread across season ticket holders, students, recent grads, group buyers and more.
Penn State has one of the nation's most comprehensive and successful athletic departments, featuring 31 programs, approximately 800 student-athletes and an NCAA Graduation Success Rate of 92 percent.
