This morning at the Nittany Lion Inn, the Penn State Board of Trustees voted to attach the name "Pegula Ice Arena" to a complex that will house Division I hockey as well as many other recreational events starting in late 2013.
The arena and new men's and women's hockey teams were made possible by an $88 million gift from Terry and Kimberly Pegula, which was announced back in September.
In the years since its establishment, UPUA and its members have made great strides to prove themselves as legitimate in the wake of the disbandment of USG, University Park's former governing body. Projects such as the White Loop extension and creating a seat for a student representative on the Borough Council are a few of the better-known successes for UPUA and its presidents.

We've all had problems with our roommates at some point... too messy, too loud, too much sexiling... Wouldn't it be great if there was a passive-aggressive way to bitch out your roommates? Look no further!
Just leave a Roommate FYI on their desk next time they do something to irk you.
My favorite is "you really need to put some clothes on, and I'm not the only roommate who thinks so." What combination would you use? Check out a larger version after the jump.
In an effort to modernize Penn State's archaic course registration system, the Office of the University Registrar will be releasing a new and improved Schedule of Courses site on January 25. This change is long overdue, and there are some pretty cool features in the upcoming release.
