Although still high with the success of last weekend's Movin' On '90 concert, members of the Association of Residence Hall Students last night admitted disappointment with the performance of the comedian who entertained at the concert's two intermissions. One of two political co-directors for the Lesbian and Gay Student Alliance announced her resignation last night. "We are the entire borough." With so much talk in State College Borough about the future regulation of student life and town preservation, some people think the seven neighborhood associations resent the student population. After a half a year of the Park and Ride program, Centre Area Transportation Authority officials said yesterday the trumped up plan's usage is way below expectations. Three years after the Strategic Study Group on the Status for Women suggested the University publicly condemn sexual assaults, the Office of the President yesterday released such a statement to kick off National Victim's Rights Week.

After Saturday's critical 7-6 loss to New Hampshire, the women's lacrosse team will definitely be ready to take the field today. It might not have to be that prepared. When the sun finally broke from behind the clouds late in the fourth quarter of Saturday's Blue-White game, Leroy Thompson was in the spotlight. If the women's golf team only played two rounds last weekend at William & Mary, it would have won the Ford's Colony Golf Invitational by one stroke.

Usually when a team competes for a long stretch of time, its performance goes from solid to shaky. The longer the competition lasts, the more the players become fatigued. Over the last several days, the men's tennis team has done the exact opposite.

The rider pushes, pushes, pushes and finally sails across the finish line for first place.

After his hour and a half long Sunday afternoon Regatta performance, David "Ziggy" Marley stands stirring a pot full of rice on the mini stove top in his band's RV. One may wonder what the reason for taking an introductory level dance class would be. Some may think the standard answer at Penn State would be that a student needed a gym credit and that a dance class was the only one they could get. A part of black history is on view at the HUB Formal Gallery. Black Wings: The American Black in Aviation is an exhibit depicting the achievements of black aviators from World War I through modern space exploration. While students in dance, theater and music programs often get the opportunity to show off their talents on campus, few get to put on a show that is exclusively their own.
