What the Hell is Frog Ball?

We here at Onward State have recently become aware of an activity going on at this very campus known as Frog Ball.

Frog Ball is one of the newest official clubs at University Park. Many questions come to mind: Where did it come from? How do you play? Will Ohio State invent Toad Ball in a fit of jealous rage? Read on and your curiosity will be done away with.

The Economics of Movie Theaters

Downtown State College has a lot to be proud of. We have great coffee shops, restaurants, and not just one, but two specialty cupcake stores. However, since 2007, there hasn't been a place to see a new movie on a Friday night.

For a town with 40,000 students, one might find it surprising that this is the case. We're supposed to be the biggest market for movies, with studios offering advanced screenings of major films for free. However, the Carmike Cinema 5, located where Chipotle now stands, wasn't able to stay profitable and closed on December 20, 2007.
