Are you the president of the Penn State Underwater Basketweaving Club, looking to plan a trip to the Great Barrier Reef, but coming up a bit short on cash? No, but actually, if your club needs money to do what it does, go talk to the University Park Allocation Committee. But asking anyone for money can be a daunting thought, so I asked UPAC Chair Mark Donovan to help demystify the process.

The Penn State men's volleyball team hosted two quality teams from California last weekend. After losing to UC Irvine on Friday, the Nittany Lions rebounded to sweep CS Northridge on Saturday.
After the weekend games, Penn State's record stands at 7-2 overall and 2-0 in conference play. The Nittany Lions have three games this week. First up is a road game on Wednesday with rival Ohio State followed by two home contests with conference opponents.
I know I said I wouldn't write about study abroad, but allow me to indulge a bit for this one column. On my program so far, I've met people from a wide range of universities. The schools represented run the gambit from the University of Missouri and the University of Colorado-Boulder to Georgetown and Williams. Course subject matter here ranges from economics and history to film and architecture. The existence of sufficient academic rigor in many study abroad programs, this one included, is debatable however. European pedagogy is different than in the States, and as a result, home universities treat study abroad classes differently.
It seems as though former Nittany Lions are the pick for head coaching positions this year. Tom Bradley was courted by UConn, Temple and Pittsburgh, Al Golden left Temple to become the new coach at Miami and Paul Pasqualoni ended up being named the new coach at Connecticut. Penn State can now add one more alum to the list of football head coaches, although this newly hired coach has made it to the big stage.
