Penn State is set to introduce its 18th president on Friday, as first reported by 6ABC News and later confirmed by Onward State.

"In the past couple of years, people seem to focus on the bad stuff that happened at Penn State, but I truly believe that good people go to Penn State. They meet, they interact, and sometimes—if they're lucky—they fall in love. No matter what anyone says, and no matter what happens, I will always love this school. Without it, I would not have my best friends and never would have met the love of my life. For that, I will be forever grateful and faithful to good ol' PSU!"
