Rallies, protests, and marches are being coordinated at every Penn State landmark, and all everyone has been able to talk about since the start of the week are the allegations surrounding some of our beloved school symbols. Some people are saying they are ashamed to be Penn Staters, that somehow the actions of a few have caused all of us to become embarrassed. But why is this? This one scandal doesn't define us as a University, but other things, positive ones, do.

The Westboro Baptist Church, infamously known for protests at funerals of fallen soldiers, is planning to bring their hate-filled rhetoric to Happy Valley for this Saturday's game against Nebraska.

It’s been five very long days and the only notable words to come from Graham Spanier have been “unconditional support.” Well, now we know why. Two members close to the administration have told the Chronicle that Graham Spanier is following strict orders to stay silent. One of the sources said, "It's tearing Graham up to sit by and watch everything he's done to build up this university over nearly 17 years—and see this individual's alleged acts tear away at it."

Multiple sources have informed Onward State that Penn State President Graham Spanier announced on Monday a 1% raise for all faculty members. It is believed, but not yet confirmed, that the raise was a university-wide one, extending from professors "down to janitors and grounds crew."

Last night, students of this university exploited the recently uncovered rape of 20 boys as an opportunity to chant “USA! USA! USA!” on Beaver Avenue. These were not protesters, they were not patriots—they were jackasses.
