This weekend, music played a huge role in keeping the 708 dancers energized and motivated to continue bumpin' and shakin' FTK. Instead of picking out a few good songs you could add to your pre-State Patty’s mixes, but have no fear, we’ll make sure you have a playlist for that later in the week.
In addition to working as Managing Editor for Onward State, I've had the pleasure of serving as a THON Technology captain for the past two years. My duties as a Technology Captain centered around the Pass System. The Pass System is used to control access to the event level of the Bryce Jordan Center during THON weekend, in order to maintain fire code regulations as well as to provide a reward to organizations based on their fundraising levels. Unfortunately, the system also necessitates that we limit the number of guests who have access to the floor. Because of the significant number of people wanting to get on the floor, long lines have formed historically on the concourse level of the BJC. Last year was plagued with some of the longest lines that THON had ever seen.
With State Patty's Day quickly approaching, we explain what the difference will be between "asshole" and "non-asshole." Check out our sweet infographic after the jump.
Step out of the real and into something much more dramatic this week with the Penn State School of Theatre's play, the Beaux' Stratagem. Held in the Playhouse Theatre in Penn State's Theatre building, the play's opening night is this Thursday at 7:30 p.m. The show will run through the weekend and close out on March 2nd. Tickets are still available and can be found from all the usual suspects.
We all know this will be a busy week, and especially weekend, for uh, studying. If you aren't a fan of wearing green nor public intoxication, PSMA has a few ideas to give you something to do.
Between the march against tuition, the crazy preacher (as opposed to the Willard preacher) relocating to outside of the HUB, and more tour groups than usual, you may be noticing many different things around campus today. However, you may or may not know that today is the 156th birthday of Dear Old State. To celebrate this, Penn States Lion Ambassadors are in the HUB giving out free stuff. So stop by and wonder how PSU has persisted all these years as you enjoy a free cookie or cupcake.
