A 20-year-old Penn State student suffered serious injuries early yesterday morning after she fell from an eighth-floor balcony at Beaver Terrace apartments, 456 E. Beaver Ave, the State College Police Department said.
The Office of Judicial Affairs reported a 35 percent jump in the amount of charges handed out against Penn State students last year.
It had all the markings of a football game. Hundreds of students were gathered on a Saturday morning, chanting "We are ... Penn State." But they didn't wake up to see Joe Paterno -- they woke up to help the community and meet new people.

Fueled by a strong outing from sophomore Greg Piecynski, the Penn State men's golf team finished a strong third out of 15 teams this weekend at the Badger Invitational in Madison, Wisc.
