THON’s C-Span shoutout
THON got some recognition from Washington yesterday.
Representative Glenn Thompson made a two-minute speech in the House of Representatives on Tuesday commending Penn State for THON. Thompson is a Republican representative for Pennsylvania’s fifth district.
We Penn Staters’ have a saying; ‘WE ARE PENN STATE’, but Madam Speaker, as you can see, it goes without question, that these students are truly the WE in ‘PENN STATE’.
Thompson is also a Penn State alumnus. Thanks dude!

Penn State and the Process of Life
To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of higher education’s death have been an exaggeration.

Tuition may be too damn high, but over the long-run, undergraduate degrees are definitely worth the cost. But Penn State could be so much more. It used to be, I think.
