Although there have been increased reports of cheating at colleges nationwide, the trend has not prompted Penn State officials to change the academic integrity policy.
Religion, community, unity and hope brought more than 200 people to the Pasquerilla Spiritual Center last night to hear Sue Paterno speak for grand opening celebrations.
David E. Jones, 25, of Emery, S.D., was arraigned before District Justice Bradley Lunsford at 1 p.m. yesterday for indecent exposure and open lewdness.
Hurricane Isabel may throw a wrench into tailgating during Saturday's Kent State football game, as predicted heavy rains Friday would cause ground saturation and possible flooding.

Along with death and taxes, one of the things current Penn State students can count on are tuition hikes -- and the misconceptions that surround them.

While the Penn State football depth chart released on Monday lists two new starters on the offensive line for Saturday's game against Kent State, Nittany Lions' coach Joe Paterno gave, at best, a weak endorsement of his two new linemen yesterday. Embroiled in a situation in which no one is happy, Penn State football coach Joe Paterno said he still has no timetable for naming a number one tailback. Mike Lukac doesn't like to see any one get hurt, but it's more difficult when that player is one of his good friends. It hasn't been a lucky week for Paul Omekanda.

They even have to knock a few balls into the back of the net. If the elite squad can accomplish all that, a win should be at hand. The 1999 women's World Cup was a landmark in American soccer history. It vitalized the women's game like nothing else had to that point and was one of the key influences in the formation of the Women's United Soccer Association. Spon-sors saw that there was a market for professional wo-men's soccer and invested millions of dollars into it.

Jeff Van Fossan is quick to deny he's trying to create a new Athens. Athens, Ga., that is. Exploring the interrelationships between interiors, exteriors and the unknown, the Zoller Gallery presents the Better Homes and Gardens exhibit.
