Freshman Convocation 2012

Penn State President Rodney Erickson released a brief statement following the sentencing of Jerry Sandusky:

Our thoughts today, as they have been for the last year, go out to the victims of Jerry Sandusky’s abuse. While today’s sentence cannot erase what has happened, hopefully it will provide comfort to those affected by these horrible events and help them continue down the road to recovery.

Sandusky was sentenced to 30-60 years in prison earlier this morning.
