| Holiday needs different approach |
| 6 days ago - The Daily Collegian Online |
| Allow me to break down the fourth wall a bit. The first column I wrote this semester was a response to an episode of the public radio program, "This American Life." This episode was titled "#1 Party School" and exposed State College's drinking culture/problem to the world. And in my response, I [Read More] |
| Letter about Playboy article over the top, condescending |
| 6 days ago - The Daily Collegian Online |
| In response to the March 3 letter, "Playboy modeling devalues women's bodies, marriage," apparently I missed the part in the Bible where it said that Adam and Eve were created and then immediately covered from head to toe with clothing. Because if anyone else were to see one of them naked, that [Read More] |
| State Patty's no different from past Penn State events |
| 6 days ago - The Daily Collegian Online |
| I didn't go out to the bars for State Patty's Day and had no desire to do so. I'm also not into big parties -- a few good friends to socialize with is all I need. That said, how is drinking at the university any different than it has ever been? People say they're ashamed. Ashamed of what? Events [Read More] |
| Holiday shows how students have ability to come together |
| 6 days ago - The Daily Collegian Online |
| I am very proud to have been a student when the first State Patty Day's came about. It was so exciting to be a part of a new Penn State tradition and to stand up for what I believe in. The event will always be more special to me than Saint Patrick's Day. [Read More] |

| 1 week ago - The Daily Collegian Online |
| In response to the March 2 article about the student who modeled for Playboy, it seemed that she was asked to do something that most parents probably raised their children never to do -- disrobe in front of a camera. [Read More] |
| Success of last few weeks not enough for DeChellis |
| 1 week ago - The Daily Collegian Online |
| In response to the March 2 column, "Players believe in coach, so should everyone else," consider this the realist's take on the so-called "rebirth" of Ed DeChellis and his 3-13 Nittany Lions. "Three out of four games including Sunday's 79-60 beat down" sounds nice, but when two of the three wins [Read More] |
