As the latest issue in our THON 101 posts, this presents the glossary, like the one in the back of your textbook that defines all the terms printed in bold. You can’t get this one at the Student Bookstore, or any bookstore downtown, and best of all, it's free. Here is the breakdown on useful terms you will probably come across during a THON weekend.
Last night's University Park Undergraduate Associaion meeting started off as any other, with an open student forum. Two students stepped forward, bringing to attention an article in today's Collegian about the incredibly low turnout of Penn State students at Tuesday's Rally for Higher Education in Harrisburg.
The contingent from Penn State (University Park) maxed out at a whopping 13, only two of which were in the UPUA: President Christian Ragland and Director of Governmental Affairs Travis Salters. Ragland said that no Assembly members attended.

I sat down with Mr. Bram to find out who this mystery man really is. Out of the shadows, and into the light.
Ticket information for Wiz Khalifa's appearance at the Bryce Jordan Center on April 26 was announced this afternoon. The concert, which will also feature Mac Miller, will cost Penn State students $28.50 and go on sale 12:00 pm on February 28 at the BHC, Eisenhower Auditorium, Penn State tickets Downtown, and the HUB.
