On Thursday last week THON teamed up with social media philanthropy Abolish Cancer to conduct the second annual TwitterTHON. In less than 8 hours @abolishcancer received more than 4,000 new followers on Twitter. Those new followers translated into a $4,000 donation to THON.
While the amount of money raised exceeded the site's expectations, the greatest surprise was the passion with which everyone tweeted and retweeted to spread THON's message. Sure, the Penn State community participated, but so did a bunch of "Twitterati."
As the Egyptian protests have headlined major news sources all around the world for over a week, the Rock Ethics Institute decided it was time to relocate this issue to State College by hosting a public forum on the events unfolding in the Middle East.
The discussion's panel included: Brockopp; Arthur Goldschmidt, Emeritus Professor of History; Veena Raman: Lecturer in Communication Arts and Sciences, and Science, Technology, and Society; and Zaid Balushi, President of the Penn State Muslim Students' Association. The panel also included Christian Brady, Dean of Schreyer Honors College, who assumed the role of moderator.
