The station that brings government meetings, community education forums and "Zesty Chair Exercises" home to viewers is now considering whether to enter into a new domain -- politics.

About a dozen Centre County residents and public officials voiced their concerns about the future of C-NET at a public hearing Tuesday night.

One of the prevalent worries for many students at Penn State is being labeled as a number. Lecture classes with 900 or so of a person's nearest and dearest friends coupled with the sprawling University Park campus are enough to make anyone feel like a book on the seventh floor stacks of Pattee.

Following controversy surrounding the Undergraduate Student Government election last Wednesday, USG Supreme Court Chief Justice Corey D. O'Brien has decided to investigate possible violations of the USG Elections Code.

More than 20 women took advantage of a program offered by the women's health department yesterday that included free breast exams and education about women's health.

SPORTS

Sometimes Ed Josefoski can get a little too intense.

Just ask Felipe Ralat of Indiana Purdue at Fort Wayne. Ralat was the recipient of a swing borne out of frustration from the senior outside hitter. Both benches cleared.

They call him "Pops." That's because he is old and he is slow -- at least in his own eyes. However, when Jay Graham steps onto a lacrosse field, his opponents may beg to differ with that theory.

Two members of the women's track and field team got a rare opportunity for a chance to compete against some of the world's best young cross country runners.

All eyes were focused on the front of the auditorium. The audience seemed captivated by the presence of the individuals standing before them.

Ron Pavlechko loves to coach the sport of football. He loves to walk the sidelines on Friday nights. The State College Area High School football coach is always looking to get an upper hand on the competition.

As the temperture was dropped, the women's lacrosse team remained hot. The Lady Lions won their fourth straight game and not even falling tempertures and rain could cool them off.

The men's gymnastics team has one opportunity to prove that it deserves to compete at nationals. Simply stated, this meet will distinguish the participants from the spectators.

As certain Lady Lion basketball fans know, spending many hours on a bus can be anything but fun. The Penn State baseball team also knows the rigors of traveling many hours from University Park to play games. But the players will get a break today.

Like a marathon runner spying the finish line during the last mile of the race, the Lady Lion gymnastics team can finally see the prize it has been aiming for during its grueling four-month season.

Letters to the editor

ARTS

Tonya Browne is the kind of person you like to make laugh. When she throws her head back, her laugh fills up a room as much as her voice does when she sings, cracking the stereotype of the serious, imposing blueswoman that, on the outside, she seems to fit. It's an honest laugh, as soothing as it is contagious, because she isn't a person to hide her feelings. If she didn't think you were funny, she wouldn't pretend.
