CollegeACB returned as PSUACB recently, but it wasn't as anonymous as you might have assumed.
To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of higher education's death have been an exaggeration. American universities produce more research and relevant knowledge for the world at large than any other institutions I know of. Tuition may be too damn high, but over the long-run, undergraduate degrees are definitely worth the cost. But Penn State could be so much more. It used to be, I think.
While I still have another full year at Penn State, there are thousands of friends, peers, and colleagues who will see the culmination of their Penn State careers this weekend. You may or may not be excited about this, but many of you will likely have family and friends descending on State College to celebrate your graduation ceremony(s). Below we at Onward State have collated a few ideas for a suggested itinerary for your final weekend as an undergraduate at Penn State.
The Lion Shrine. The Penn State sign. Old Main. The JoePa statue. All classic locations for graduation photos. But what about some other locations on campus and in downtown State College? Onward State co-founders Eli Glazier and Evan Kalikow (along with their good friend Ethan Hirsch) embarked on a quest to take graduation photos in... less conventional locations.
In case you missed them, I took it upon myself as the unofficial "List Editor" to compile a list of some of the best lists from this past semester. There are some really good ones on here, so check them out.
I'm probably the only person who has spent my entire college career almost evenly divided between working for The Daily Collegian and Onward State. I feel like this has given me a unique perspective on Penn State's media scene. And I've learned a great deal from both media outlets.
