Penn State Earth Hour

Old State celebrated Earth Hour yesterday, the global event that promotes turning off light fixtures between the hours 8 and 9 PM. Penn State participated only symbolically however, because flicking the switch on the whole campus might have ruffled a few feathers and, additionally, would have been a logistical nightmare. Instead, lights at various Penn State landmarks went dark for Earth Hour. Below is a picture of Old Main with the traditional bell tower lights extinguished.

But, as I graduate a week from today, I figured I should give it a go myself. Rather than discuss the origins of Onward State like Evan,  I’d just like to briefly thank a few individuals who have defined my Penn State experience.
