During this year's Martin Luther King (MLK), Jr. Day celebration, students will get the opportunity to see what they would look like if they were another race.

The University of Michigan's got it. The University of Wisconsin, too. Ohio State also recognizes it.

Pennsylvania's annual gas tax increase is affecting Exxon's customers, said Larry Johnsonbaugh, manager of Graham's Exxon, 815 S. Allen St.

The State College Borough Council and Ferguson Township have recently commissioned a study to discover the feasibility of putting residential housing and businesses amidst student housing in the area of west of Atherton Street, known as the Urban Village.

Faster response times, more efficient training and a more attractive facility are some reasons members of Centre LifeLink EMS, formerly known as Alpha Community Ambulance Services, are excited about their new facility.

The State College Police Department is getting its first opportunity to use the Beaver Canyon surveillance cameras as a way to identify suspects in a burglary case.

According to a memo issued by the Dickinson School of Law, if the current dual-campus proposal is accepted, Penn State will give the school $10 million and the Dickinson Board of Governors could be eliminated.

The day the tsunami hit, Sri Lanka native Avinash Mahtani (sophomore-psychology) was in the Middle East with his family, planning to travel home for vacation.

Aspiring clubs take note: While the recognition process for student groups has become easier, be prepared for increased competition for university funds and resources.

The tribe has spoken: Ian made the list.

Less grant money for anti-terrorism equipment and training is expected for the Centre County region for 2005, while more grant money will be distributed directly from the federal government to larger cities.

SPORTS

It might be easier for the Penn State women's gymnastics team to sleep tonight knowing that it is at home for the next meet.

Though Penn State gave its final exams a month ago, those brutal tests keep coming for some.

Last season, the Penn State women's indoor track team won its first ever Big Ten championship. Now, with the Penn State Relays, the first event of the 2005 season approaching tomorrow, the mindset of this year's team is simply to repeat the success of last season.

With one game of experience under its belt, Team USA is looking to rebound during its next two games over the weekend.

The kid's got a pretty sweet deal.

If only Jen Harris could see and, better yet, remember what her teammates and fans could when she's in her "zone."

If there's one collective thought running through the minds of the Penn State ACHA Division I Icers, it's revenge.

For a minute or so, deep in the black sea, through the eyes of a man named Zissou, surrounded by clouds of fluorescent snapper and an animated shark that glows more than it shimmers, and aurally encircled by the ethereal warblings of Icelandic atmospheric chamber rock act Sigur Rós, the world makes sense.

This just in: College kids love sex, booze and offensive music.
