Interfraternity Council wraps up semester
Last night at Acacia fraternity, 234 Locust Lane, the Interfraternity Council held its last meeting of the semester and wrapped up several important issues before IFC members break for the summer.
Spring brings crackdown on drinking under-agers
For some University students, spring is a time for renewal, a time of rebirth . . . and a time to restock the refrigerator with beer.
Policewomen strengthen local force
The call -- a criminal mischief crime at the State College Area High School -- came over the police radio, and State College Police Department Officer Ann Henry was sent to the scene.
Police Log
In NL, West not best
In perhaps the weakest division in the National League, the West will see runs scored in bunches and pitchers getting shelled just as often.
Reds, Astros should top Central
With the dominance shown by the Atlanta Braves in the National League over the last few years, it is easy to forget that the last senior circuit club to take home a world title came from the National League Central -- the Cincinnati Reds in 1990. While the Braves are favored again, the Reds and Astros are solid teams in the running for the pennant.
NL East: a Brave new world
When the baseball season starts today, some teams in the National League East may be wishing replacement players had stayed and that the realignment of the divisions never happened.
Alumni game revisits old times
Last Friday night's annual Blue-White alumni basketball game gave former Penn State players a chance to come back and play with old friends and teammates.
Lady linksters back with confident air
The women's golf team accomplished its goal of gaining much-needed confidence when it won the University of San Francisco Invitational on Thursday and Friday.
Pressure put on linksters
The Penn State men's golf team is in a Catch-22 situation after the Princeton Invitational last week. After placing fourth at the tournament, the Lions will have to place high in next week's Eastern Championships in Easton, Md., to be in a secure position for the regionals and NCAA tournament next month.
Laxer attackers tax opposition
The No. 12 men's lacrosse team has scored 187 goals this season. Of those, 91 have been scored by attackmen. Of the top-six leading scorers on the team, three are attackmen.
Lady laxers prevail after tough first half vs. New Hampshire
After Saturday's 13-5 loss to No. 2 Princeton, the No. 5 women's lacrosse team had some choices. They could either go back to winning or losing. They chose the former.

Letters to the editor
Fantasy game lures, addicts
Tensions brewed in Waring lounge as creatures attacked and spells were cast. Some gained life while others died miserably. The next move was crucial, it all comes down to one card.
On-campus art exhibits expose two students' perceptions about the human
Many people view art as a form of entertainment and leisure but for two University students, art does more than please an audience. To John Ivanko and Emanuel Pangilinan, art is a way to express the uniqueness of humanity.
Tattooing, body piercing can have pretty gross side effects
For many, getting a tattoo or a piercing is a spur-of-the-moment deal. Sometimes people don't think much about the consequences of their actions.
Social stigmas
Shannon Huss (junior-earth science) sits on the worn couch, one foot propped on his nervously bouncing knee. As he thinks about the tiny needle which will be plunged a thousand times into his skin, the last thing on his mind is the social and historical implications of the tattoo he is waiting for.
Chucks make simple, classic fashion sense
While other brands struggle to create the fanciest, most aerodynamic sneaker possible, one brand has been able to keep a "foothold" on the market without changing a stitch.
Fan, musicians alike tide themselves over with tribute bands
