Pro Tip: Return Lab Printer Pages for LionCash

Jared Judge sent in this helpful end-of-the-year tip for Onward State readers.

Students can return unused printer pages for LionCash (at 5 cents a page) by logging in at https://clc.its.psu.edu/Users/PrintingInfo.aspx and clicking the 'return' link next to the 'Buy Pages' button. It is a hidden feature that can only be used once a semester.



My question is: if IST students get unlimited printing, can they return unlimited pages for... unlimited LionCash!?! (Answer: no, no they can't.)

Talor Battle – Not Too Cool For School

School may be out for summer, but Talor Battle will return to classes in the fall. According to FOX23 out of Battle's hometown of Albany, New York, a text message confirmed that the star guard of the Nittany Lions will take his name out of the NBA draft and return to Happy Valley for his senior season.


Neither the Penn State Athletic Office nor the NBA have not confirmed the validity of Battle's change of heart yet. He is still going to Oregon today to work out with the Portland Trailblazers, and he has until Saturday to officially withdraw his name from the draft.

Fake Bomb Forces Atherton Hall Evacuation

Last night, Atherton Hall-- home of the Schreyer Honors College-- was evacuated for three hours as University Park police investigated a suspicious looking device that had been found in a ground floor janitor's closet. The device, a plastic cylinder with wires and batteries attached to it, was termed a "hoax" by Penn State.

WE ARE Recycling!

While Penn State tuition and fees may rise every year, there is one way the university is saving us some money: recycling.

Get a Lion Shrine Pic Before the Rush!

Hey (soon-to-be) Graduates! Want to get your picture, dolled up in your cap and gown, with the Nittany Lion Shrine, the JoePa statue, or an ice cream cone at the Creamery?

Philly’s Taser-Boy Headed to Penn State

Monday afternoon at Citizens Bank Ballpark, something more unusual than the Phillies losing to the Cardinals took place. 17 year-old Steve Consalvi decided it would be a good idea to run out onto the field, just for the heck of it. That trip ended poorly for him when a Philadelphia police officer decided to go all University of Florida on his ass and Tasered him in shallow left field.


Besides being immensely humorous, you're probably asking why this website is covering this. The answer is because Mr. Consalvi is "a real good student, heading to Penn State," according to his father. So if you've ever wondered what a taser feels like, you can ask him in person.
