Pro Tip: Return Lab Printer Pages for LionCash

Jared Judge sent in this helpful end-of-the-year tip for Onward State readers.

Students can return unused printer pages for LionCash (at 5 cents a page) by logging in at https://clc.its.psu.edu/Users/PrintingInfo.aspx and clicking the 'return' link next to the 'Buy Pages' button. It is a hidden feature that can only be used once a semester.



My question is: if IST students get unlimited printing, can they return unlimited pages for... unlimited LionCash!?! (Answer: no, no they can't.)

Fake Bomb Forces Atherton Hall Evacuation

Last night, Atherton Hall-- home of the Schreyer Honors College-- was evacuated for three hours as University Park police investigated a suspicious looking device that had been found in a ground floor janitor's closet. The device, a plastic cylinder with wires and batteries attached to it, was termed a "hoax" by Penn State.


As bomb experts were in the process of examining the device, a few students approached police and said that they believed the device in question might be one that they had assembled a few months ago.

Onward State Tweet Up: Cupcakes and Camaraderie

Thanks to everyone who came out to yesterday's tweet up. I hope you enjoyed the cupcakes from Sugar on Top!

Free Cupcakes at Onward State’s Duck Pond Tweet Up

I'm excited about Thursday's tweet up for more than just the pancake and bacon cupcakes.


Tweet ups are a great way for Twitter communities to interact in real life, translating digital connections into their offline analogues. And Penn State is definitely ripe for one. Our Twitter community has grown dramatically since this fall, thanks in large part to adoption by organizations like THON and, yes, Penn State itself.


The tweet up will be Thursday afternoon at 4:30pm by the infamous duck pond beside the Hintz Family Alumni Center. Sugar on Top, a new cupcake boutique opening soon on Beaver Ave, will be serving free cupcakes to all attendees. This is going to be a very informal event. Stop by after class or work, jot your Twitter handle down on the name tags we'll be providing, and meet some new friends!


Follow @OnwardState and @SugarOnTopSC for more information about the tweet up.

Onward State Spring Tweet Up on Thursday

Onward State is happy to announce that it will be hosting a spring tweet up on Thursday afternoon at 4:30 pm somewhere on the Penn State campus. The weather is forecast to be in the mid 60s. An exact location will be announced soon-- we're trying to figure out the best spot to hold it.


The tweet up is not just an opportunity to see your favorite writers and editors though. You'll also get an early taste of State College's newest culinary trend: cupcakes. Sugar on Top will be providing four different flavors of cupcakes for the event, including their "soon-to-be-famous" pancake and bacon variety.


Watch @OnwardState and @SugarOnTopSC for more information about the tweet up.
