We visited the Involvement Fair in its final hours this afternoon. Alumni Hall was crowded, but the event itself struck me as an inadequate to introduce 45,000 undergrads to the multitude of clubs on this campus. Student Activities has a database that is unfortunately not very conducive to browsing and signing up for list-servs.
Most disappointing tri-fold from club representing a first-world country.
Club that wishes its country was as tranquil as its kiosk.
There are more photos after the jump.
Organization most likely to break our musical hearts by bringing Soulja Boy Tell 'Em to perform. (Photo from SPA kiosk.)
Organization that is least obvious about how much power it has.Most unintentionally scary organization. (Google Mormonism.)Club that would throw the trippiest parties.Club that would benefit most from having their horizons expanded by the pagans.Club that misses Barack Obama, the candidate. Now they have to settle for Barack Obama, the President.Organization with best games and, of course, This Squirrel.
To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of higher education’s death have been an exaggeration. American universities produce more research and relevant knowledge for the world at large than any other institutions I know of. Tuition may be too damn high, but over the long-run, undergraduate degrees are definitely worth the cost. But Penn State could be so much more. It used to be, I think.
