The last stop on Rodney Erickson's three-city alumni town hall tour might well have been his best performance, as the Penn State President fielded questions from alumni on a variety of topics ranging from Joe Paterno's firing to how a professor can achieve emeritus status.

The Penn State women's basketball team earned one of its most impressive wins of the season on Sunday against Nebraska, winning 93-73.
