Anita Genger has decided to say "thanks, but no thanks" to the Democratic nomination for the State College Borough Council she received in May. The State College Borough Council held a public hearing Monday to discuss the possibility of establishing housing for chronically mentally ill or physically and developmentally disabled people. The University is moving upward to alleviate the parking problems on campus. In 1987, when Mary Frank Fox was hired, she believed she would be awarded tenure in 1991. But four years passed and opinions had changed. A $250 reward is being offered by the Keystone chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists to anyone who is willing to testify in court about the theft of 6,000 Lionhearteds in May. An Altoona Campus student shot outside an Altoona convenience store in April was released Tuesday from Conemaugh Valley Memorial Hospital, a hospital spokeswoman said. Although high school places importance on extracurricular activities, when it comes to University Park admissions they are purely academic. Teamwork could be the key to making Centre Region consolidation work. The Penn State Bookstore on Campus may appear the same, physically, but within its walls things are beginning to change. Although the University Future Committee recently released its report illustrating $30.8 million in budget reductions, many of the recommended changes await final approval and are still under dispute. Penn State got its hand in the cookie jar, but didn't get all it wanted.
The golf teams' seasons both came to an end without much fanfare. The men's team finished a disappointing eighth place at the Big Ten Tournament. Only 2.23 seconds separated them. When sophomore Kim Kelly crossed the finish line at the NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Championship, she was right on the heels of teammate Kelli Hunt. The Men's track and field team finished their season last weekend at the NCAA Championships in New Orleans. The old axiom "last but not least" need not apply to the women's tennis team. The men's lacrosse team saved its best for last. Finishing the year with their eighth straight winning season, the Nittany Lions (6-5) won their final game 19-18 against Delaware on May 1 in sudden-death overtime on a goal by sophomore Steve Lehman. The men's tennis team has redeemed itself. Led by sophomore Ivan Spinner, the Lions finished fourth at the Big Ten Championships in May, improving upon their 10th-place finish last year. With a No. 3 seed, the EIVA title and a third-straight trip to the NCAA Championships, the men's volleyball team headed to UCLA's Pauley Pavilion in good shape for its Final Four match against No. 2 seed Cal State Northridge, May 7-8. Baseball Coach Joe Hindelang is just glad its over. Sure, there were some bright spots for the Lions this season -- pitcher Justin Craig was a second-team All Big Ten selection. One win made all the difference in the softball team's season. Trailing the Big Ten with a sole claim on last place, the Lady Lions entered their final weekend of play against Indiana on May 14-15. They needed only one win to send Michigan State to the bottom with them. For years the Syracuse basketball program has been a national powerhouse, cranking out such players as Sherman Douglas, Derrick Coleman and Billy Owens. My Opinion: Michael Weinreb
