THON wants you to go green by collecting cans and bottles for the THON Four Diamonds Recycling Effort (4DRE). Kicking off this past Monday, the event is an effort to help the environment while also raising money FTK. Find out how to join in after the jump.
What's with that blood stuff anyways? Apparently vampires don't exist (damn you, Twilight), so we're practically overflowing with that stuff. So what to do with it...How about donating it to THON? How about donating it today at the THON Kickoff Blood Drive?
With the exception of Thanksgiving, this past canning weekend was really the first time Penn State students got a chance to go out and see how people outside the State College bubble would react towards the Penn State community. From what some of us here at Onward State and our friends experienced, it seems like there has been a mixed reception.
This week's Overall Series post, and THON Committee of the Week video stars Technology Overall Andrew Ogburn. Take a little tour de Andrew after the jump!
Canning Weekend #2 is but hours away, and everyone is packing up their winter coats and sleeping bags for a weekend of fun and fulfillment. If there ever was a time when representation of THON, and Penn State were most vital, it would be now. While all Penn State students and alumni understand that THON has nothing to do with the Sandusky scandal, the same cannot necessarily be said by those outside our community. Some passers-by may see canners holding signs that say "Penn State" and "kids" on them and immediately make assumptions. Some may even vocalize their conclusions, and we must decide how to properly handle such a situation.
In support of THON, independent THON organizations Atlas, Springfield, Apollo and SHCStuCo will be holding a Mario Kart competition from 7:30-10 tonight in Redifer Commons.
