NEWS

The Pennsylvania Senate passed a bill last week in a step to reduce the legal blood alcohol content (BAC) allowed for operating a motor vehicle from 0.10 to 0.08 percent, effective on Oct. 1.

Some fraternity members are opposed to the State College Borough Council's proposal to place cameras on East Beaver Avenue.

The Ferguson Township Police Department is asking anyone with information regarding the Saturday morning indecent assault of a 21-year-old woman to contact them.

The Keystone Alliance, a university-based research group for homeland security, had its inaugural summit yesterday at the Nittany Lion Inn.

In an effort to reduce the number of alcohol-related car crashes that occur during graduation and prom season, the Centre County Alcohol Task Force began an extensive system of sobriety checkpoints, roving DUI patrols and Cops-in-Shops Friday.

The stakes are raised: Buffy the Vampire Slayer is being sucked into the Hellmouth, and fans are out for blood.

From today until May 10, Penn State students can donate items they do not want to the Trash to Treasure program.

The price for monthly parking downtown may soon be on the rise.

Feature Photo

Two educators who have studied and written about the way economic disadvantages affect children and adults will receive honorary doctorates from Penn State on May 17.

A 17-year-old boy was seriously injured Friday after being struck by a car at about 11:30 p.m. at the intersection of Beaver Avenue and South Atherton Street, the State College Police Department said.

Ben and Jerry's, 124 S. Allen St., will have its annual Free Cone Day today between noon and 8 p.m.


SPORTS

If Jimmy Kennedy thinks he found out what nervousness is from falling to No. 12 in the first round of the NFL Draft, he clearly hasn't spoken to center Joe Iorio, safety Shawn Mayer or offensive tackle Gus Felder yet.

Integrating a 12 into the Big Ten logo ought to be more difficult than the current 11 spliced into the conference symbol.

There were five different running backs who carried the ball, and none of them stood out from the pack.

The Penn State softball team is looking ahead, but not past its doubleheader today against Kent State.

A lot of teams can play with intensity for a portion of a game. It's being unable to sustain that fire which ultimately does them in.

While many of the current Nittany Lions say no one should take too much out of the Blue-White game, recruits aren't always so casual in their approach to the Penn State football team's end-of-spring scrimmage.

Penn State had its share of visitors this past weekend. A lot of them are still in high school. Most of them will never come to State College again. But, for the select few who do make a return, chances are their return will be a glorious one.


OPINIONS

Grand success: Destiny campaign went above goals to aid students

Letters to the editor

SCIHEALTH

Though the warmer weather has lifted the spirits of many school-weary students, the onset of spring has left some feeling as though they are living in a bad Visine commercial.

The morning-after pill may soon become available without a prescription, and members of the Penn State community have mixed reactions to the change.

The dreaded 'pit' stain -- any cotton T-shirt's worst enemy -- seems to strike at the most inconvenient time, especially for people who exercise. There are options available, however, to prevent sweat stains from ruining a workout.


Mice and humans may share more than just an appetite for cheese -- they also have internal growth factors that are very similar. Because of this, Douglas Cavener, professor of biology, has used mice to research treatments for three human diseases: juvenile-onset diabetes, osteoporosis and Wolcott-Rallison syndrome.

My Opinion: Emily Gelsomin

ARTS

Ordinary people trying out for a chance at a record deal. That is about all that PeSt Records has in common with the reality television show American Idol.


WEATHER

Partly sunny, a chance of showers and t-storm. High 70.
