Lactation Stations
The Breastfeeding Support Program at Penn State provides rooms (Lactation Stations) at many locations on the Penn State University Park campus, as well as at all Commonwealth Campuses. A map of lactation rooms at the University Park campus is available.
These rooms are available to all Penn State students, faculty, staff, and their spouses/domestic partners to provide a comfortable, convenient place on campus for breastfeeding or pumping. If you are interested in using a campus Lactation Station at University Park, email [email protected] to obtain access information. If you are interested in using a Commonwealth Campus Lactation Station, please see the Contact page.
About the Lactation Stations
- Lactation Stations provide a secure, private and restful room for you to breastfeed or pump. All stations will include a chair, a desk, table or counterspace, and electrical outlets.
- Some stations also provide a Medela Symphony pump, a hospital-grade, multi-user pump. Kits to be used with the University Park pumps are available through the Breastfeeding Support Program. After purchase, these kits are yours to keep and bring with you for use with our pumps anytime you utilize a Lactation Station. Pump kits to be used with the Commonwealth campus pumps must be compatible with the Medela Symphony.
- Some stations will also provide an in-room or nearby sink and a refrigerator for milk storage.

Beaver Stadium Access
We encourage anyone needing breastfeeding accommodations to enter the Stadium via the ADA Gate. Breast pumps and cooler bags for milk storage are permitted to be taken into Beaver Stadium. The preference is that pumps are placed in clear plastic 1-gallon zip-lock bags. However, if this is not possible, it may still be brought into the stadium and will be checked and tagged after inspection.
