Thinking back on all the memories I have made each Saturday in the chug line, waiting in line for the cocktagon, or just surrounded by all my people, tears of joy come over me.
To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of higher education’s death have been an exaggeration. American universities produce more research and relevant knowledge for the world at large than any other institutions I know of. 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.
