"As the director of the WaQi Summer Camps, I have found The University of Scranton to be a wonderful and friendly venue. [Conference &] Event Services, student assistants, as well as campus police and dining personnel, are attentive and helpful, and have always been able to accommodate my most detailed requests. The grounds and facilities are always clean and beautifully manicured. I have been attending events at The University of Scranton for the past six years and have nothing but praise for their efforts in welcoming guests."
Tom Cushing, Camp Director | WaQi
"The University of Scranton was an excellent location for our week-long annual conference, Energypath. The campus was large enough to accommodate 300 to 400 attendees and small enough to walk around the campus with ease. The conference and event staff were immensely helpful during the planning process and made themselves available 24/7 throughout our conference. Our event needs, including dorm and classroom space, as well as outdoor space for hands-on training activities, were met perfectly by the campus. We received many compliments from our conference attendees about the facilities, signage, and seamless flow of the event. The combination of attentive staff and first-class facilities make this a perfect location for any event. I look forward to future

“We've had other sites where we had great first impressions--only to have a disappointing experience when we arrived. HT's experience at The University of Scranton was every bit as good as our first impressions. I'm grateful. Thank you!"

"I want to extend my personal thanks and the appreciation of the AREA II Board to you and your entire staff for all of your work in making our recent conferences a huge success. . . .From the beginning of the process, your enthusiastic support and assurance that you and the University staff would be able to meet our needs put me at ease. Indeed everything was delivered as promised! Despite not having hosted a handbell event before, the "can do" attitude of all involved helped us to accomplish a most successful event. We enjoyed our time at The University of Scranton and work with your staff. . . .it is certainly my recommendation and hope that The University of Scranton becomes part of the regular cycle for our biennial conferences. Thanks again for the wonderful hospitality!”

"As one of the directors of a sleepaway camp program for youth with special needs, I can attest that our relationship with The University of Scranton to regularly use short-term dorm rentals and dining hall access during the summer months has been really valuable. . . .There are many reasons we keep coming back to The University of Scranton, the first of which is the great customer service we have received from the school and also the students who assist us when we arrive on campus. . . .The teens and the staff really enjoyed the very quality breakfast buffet provided as part of our stay, which had a lot of options for both hot and cold items and more than enough space for our group to move through in a quick and orderly fashion. . . .I would most certainly recommend The University of Scranton to other schools, scout, or recreational groups looking for large group reservations in a safe and accommodating atmosphere."
