Jacob V. Lotz, Penn State Harrisburg Undergraduate Student
Community Impact Student Fellow and Oral History Transcriptionist, Spring 2025
Jacob was the recipient of the inaugural Chancellor's Community Impact Student Fellow Award in Archives and Special Collections for Spring 2025. Generously funded by the Penn State Harrisburg Chancellor's Office, this award and Jacob's work has enabled our repository to make more progress on the transcription of over 70 histories of Holocaust survivors, liberators, and witnesses from the Harrisburg area. Captain of the Penn State Harrisburg Golf Team, and a native of Munich, Germany, we were so thankful to have Jacob join our archives team from March through May 2025.
