After all the talk of varsity hockey making its way to Penn State last month, something snuck up on us: The Icers, our club hockey team, has finally started playing again!
You're being charged, along with your tuition, an Information Technology Fee of $236 per semester (up from $230 last year). Similar to the Facilities Fee and Student Activity Fee, it's not exactly tuition, but it comes out of your pocket if you are a Penn State student.
There's been a movement in the works, involving the Council of Commonwealth Student Governments and University Park Undergraduate Association, to develop an official mechanism for student feedback for this fee.
Friday was more than just the best night of the weekend, but also an autumn kick-off as the weather chilled and Fall began to take form. By the time some student's classes were ending, the White Loop was full of belligerent students, who had pre-gamed the heck out of the nights event at the Bryce Jordan Center.
Chants of "Passion Pit" and "B-J-C" erupted before the bus even hit University Drive, just in case the bus driver was unaware as to where everyone wanted to go.
