Welcome to the Waldorf

NEW YORK -- The stars are out for the College Football Hall of Fame induction. ... OK, at 9 a.m., I actually mean the still-sleepy reporters are out and already pounding away on their keyboards.

But nevertheless, the scene is something special here this morning. That's largely because the Waldorf-Astoria, one of the world's ritziest hotels, is entirely and overwhelmingly impressive.

A mammoth crystal chandelier, gold everywhere, Christmas decorations of fresh-cut flowers and two staggering trees. And that's just in the lobby. Head further back and it gets even bigger and nicer.

The Roster

Travis Johnson Mug

Travis Johnson is a senior majoring in journalism and political science and a football reporter for the Collegian. He's previously covered the wrestling, baseball and women's golf teams. Travis loves to drive fast with the windows down and the rock 'n' roll blaring — even in the winter.

Josh Langenbacher Mug

Josh Langenbacher has written for the Collegian since his junior year and covered the women's track and field team. He's hoping he doesn't have to rescue any colleagues from telephone booths in the HUB — or anywhere else, for that matter.

Andrew Wible Mug

Andrew Wible is a junior majoring in journalism and a football reporter for the Daily Collegian. He has also covered the men's and women's basketball teams. A confused soul, he listens to rap, plays golf and hunts. And like any true Pennsylvanian, he treats the Monday after Thanksgiving as a national holiday.
