The crime rate on State Patty's this year was a little bit lower than last year, according to an article in The Daily Collegian. But that doesn't redeem this pointless "holiday."
Other than just photographing yesterday, John O'Brien and myself decided to interview whatever students were willing to talk about their State Patty's Day thus far. The interviews took place from 2-3PM on Saturday, and most students we interacted with were very kind (some a little bit TOO nice...).
Fellow photographer John O'Brien and I decided to brave the cold weather and aimlessly wandering drunken mobs to take some photographs--for the sake of never having to use that same balcony photograph for each SPD post. Green is flowing through the streets of State College, evidence that despite evidence to slow it down, State Patty's Day has not been stopped. Check out the slideshow below, to see some of the colorful characters walking around downtown.
Ah, State Patty’s Day, the not-so-wonderful student holiday created for the purpose of solely getting hammered before St. Patrick’s Day. If you’re at State, but looking for a better way to spend the holiday, and possibly having a lot more fun helping out the community or engaging in some fun activities, then look no further. Onward State’s got you covered.
There's nothing quite like a night in 302 HUB, kicking back with two Diet Cokes and watching the gears of our student government turn simultaneously with the wheels of progress. Last night was no different, as the UPUA met for their weekly General Assembly meeting.
This weekend Happy Valley will be filled with out-of-town visitors. Read on to discover some of those rare characters you'll see this weekend.
