State Patty's Day 2013 has come and gone, but an optimism remains that the pseudo-holiday may be over -- or at least significantly hindered -- after crime numbers this year indicate a substantial downtrend in illegal activity and shenanigans.

Penn State sports had a great weekend, highlighted by school records in swimming, and a Big Ten Championship for the Lady Lions.

Anthony Lubrano called for a refund of the $6.5 million Penn State spent to commission Freeh report today, becoming the fourth Penn State trustee to do so since the independent Paterno report was released. He released this statement, via the Penn Staters for Responsible Stewardship group.

State Senator Jake Corman has been one of the most ardent supporters to keep the $60 million NCAA fine inside Pennsylvania state lines.
So after The NCAA filed a lawsuit against Governor Tom Corbett and other state officials saying that they are acting illegally in trying to tamper with the NCAA consent decree, Corman, expectedly, was not pleased.

The College Republicans and College Democrats came together last night to talk about a hot topic both in Washington, and nation-wide. In the wake of some of the most tragic and deadly shootings in America, gun control debates are raging across the country, and for about an hour or so, Penn State had our very own in 073 Willard.

For those who have chosen to ignore State Patty's this year, there are a number of other activities and events (other than Skate Patty's Day) that are happening on Saturday. It's almost as if the some people want to stop State Patty's from happening.
