If you're looking for some alternatives to heading to the crowd-packed Bryce Jordan Center for your live music needs — check out our list of smaller upcoming shows.
With one in every 117 American college graduates obtaining a degree from Dear Old State, we have more than a few famous faces among us. In addition to over 90 Olympic athletes, 11 past and present Congressional representatives, and 332 Nittany Lions selected in the NFL draft, a number of noteworthy names are scattered throughout Penn State history.
When UMass comes to Penn State this Saturday it's not just going to be a battle between our football teams, it's going to be a battle between fans.

The Bryce Jordan Center hosts an eclectic group of events throughout the year. From concerts to the career fair, there is almost nothing that the arena won't host.
