Anyone in the HUB Auditorium after 7 p.m. yesterday was treated not only to a clip of an Academy Award-winning movie, but also a lecture by a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist.

For Penn State students who watched The O.C. during its four-year run, or for everyone with a soft spot in their hearts for power pop, the headliner of this year's Movin' On should be familiar.

A recent study found doctors prescribe antibiotics to treat most sinus infections -- a move the study's author said could have harmful effects on patients.

More than 20 supporters of a Penn State professor who was struck and killed by a van while biking in March 2006 showed up yesterday to see the driver plead guilty to vehicular homicide.

During this winter, Penn State javelin throwers Allen Pettner and Tanner Evak were training hard like the rest of the team.

Coming into Sunday's game, the Penn State women's lacrosse team was hoping to start off conference play strong and with a win.

It's the simple pleasures in life -- such as a few extra hours of shut-eye and none of the hassle associated with travel -- that have the Penn State softball team excited to finally be back at home.

Every time they stroll to home plate, the first three hitters for the Penn State baseball team have just one goal in mind: Spark the offense.

In most sports, winning a conference title usually means a team will be better off than others to win a national championship.

The biggest highlight of Scott Balboni's first season as head coach of the Penn State ACHA Division I Icers may have been his team's 31 victories, which tied for second most in team history.
