Recently, something called LionSearch Beta has appeared on the website for the PSU library. Basically, a “library” is a place where you would go to borrow PDF files that somebody else printed out for you. They are even alphabetized sometimes!

Apparently Onward State wasn’t the only blog up to April Fool’s shenanigans as hiphopwired.com reported that at a Weezy concert at “University, PA” Drake was supposed to be part of surprise performance but was fired from Wayne’s Young Money label after a heated backstage spat.

For those of us who would rather hike up a mountain than hike back to frat row, being stuck in town can grow monotonous at times.

A short road trip on a Saturday can make some of your most memorable experiences while at Penn State. For the first installment of this series, I visited Penn's Cave this past weekend.
