DelVal students are raking up a pile of autumn activities and events to share across campus.

The Fall Semester at Delaware Valley University is off to a spooktacular start! As pumpkins line the pathways and crisp leaves crunch underfoot, student clubs and activities are brewing up excitement across campus.
