Your Time to Shine

Are you the kind of person that sits around all day thinking of names for things (scientist, rapper, politician)? Well, the Eberly College of Science has just the opportunity for you! The Eberly College is adding a new student center to the Ritenour building:

The east wing of Ritenour Building will soon be home to science undergraduate co-op, internship, and externship information, as well as advising and career advice...vitally important career resources, brought together in one place. This new student center, designed specially for science students, will provide comfortable furnishings and space to study, learn, and collaborate.

It's like the HUB... only for science kids. Anyways, they need help coming up with a name for the student center. What would you receive for your efforts? The winner of the contest receives an iPod touch, a $250 gift certificate to the Penn State bookstore, and the chance to officially name the student center. Four runners-up will also receive a $50 gift certificate. You can enter as many times as you like until January 25.

Men’s Basketball Falls to Wolverines, 64-55

After completely dominating Michigan during the first half of play, Talor Battle and company fell flat in the second period, missing a critical opportunity to beat a preseason top 25 opponent.

Penn State Wins Ugly In Orlando

It may not have been perfect, but Daryll Clark got to solidify his much-discussed legacy at Penn State with a win.


The Nittany Lions won the Capital One Bowl, 19-17, closing out what could have widely considered been a disappointing ten win season. The victory over No. 12 ranked LSU was certainly not the squad's best play of the season - a 13 point lead in the third quarter quickly turned into a one point deficit - but it was the its first win over a ranked opponent.

Onward State’s Resolution for the New Year

This fall was Onward State's second full semester at Penn State. Our readers are probably aware that we spent much of it preparing to become a business. We have paused those plans.


Onward State is not unique in our approach to covering the news; we are hardly the first to crossbreed snark with objectivity. New (and old) media outlets all over the world been forced to develop new paradigms of entrepreneurial journalism. Reacting to this new era is occasionally fruitful, but always tentative. Frankly, nobody knows what the media will look like five years from now.

Question of the Day: Snowpocalypse

I just came in from shoveling 22 inches of snow from my driveway in Pennsylvania’s friendly Commonwealth to the south and I was wondering: How much snow do you have at home? .Also, tell us what town/zip code you are in. .

Hey Life, Let’s Move This Along!

Imagine yourself ten years from now. Pretty exciting, right? By then, I’d like to think I’ll be married to a super model with a southern accent, living in a gigantic house with my 2.5 children and white picket fence. Pretty bold claims for an English Education major. Now, picture yourself 10 years ago. I know […]
