IFC and PHC Announce Community Coalition

Sometimes there’s news in State College that seems like it should have happened years ago. This is one of those stories.

The Penn State Interfraternity Council and the Panhellenic Council announced a partnership this afternoon to form the IFC/PHC Community Coalition, which will be tasked with coordinating and strengthening the Greek community’s stake in State College.

The kickoff event is already planned. On February 8, the IFC/PHC Community Coalition will host a banquet in the Nittany Lion Inn Boardroom for Greek leaders to connect with local community service organization.

One of the IFC/PHC Community Coalition’s first organizational priorities has already been announced: it will be developing a plan to “encourage responsible behavior on State Patty’s day.” The IFC/PHC Community Coalition has planned a joint meeting of the IFC and PHC President’s Councils on Monday, February 21, to discuss how the Greek community can provide leadership during the student-created drinking holiday.

Penn State and the Process of Life

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.
