Words like activism and advocacy are being passed around more than ever in conversations at Penn State. This is exactly where we need to be. This is a university that houses tens of thousands of students with each coming year, and there should be a voice coming from the students. Remembering what happened here three years ago with the "No Hate At Penn State" rally is crucial. That event happened before I was even at Penn State.
These things have to be remembered so that the upcoming students may be inspired and appreciate the changes that have been implemented. There is still a lot of work to be done, but at least we are seeing a lot of history in the making.
