There weren't news vans lining the streets of State College last weekend

Not exactly.

WPVI, KYW TV, WTXF from Philadelphia all had reporters out there. I'd imagine it was much the same from other PA cities.

Don't play the victim card. It seems like a nice, if odd, thing the kids out there were doing, but it's not like they only get negative coverage.

Why is it an “odd” thing the students are doing? They’ve been doing it for 40 years. FIFTEEN THOUSAND students work on this year round. It literally never stops.

It “seems” like a nice thing they are doing??? They just raised nearly $11 million for pediatric cancer. I think that passes the threshold of “seems”, doesn’t it?

You and the other detractors can say whatever you want about me or my University and you can paint me, and my fellow alums and students with the broadest brush you care to use - I don’t really care.

But do me two little favors. One, give credit to the students. Two, put your money where your mouth is and donate to the best local pediatric cancer ward/research center/hospital that you can find.

You do those two things and you can call me Sally and tell everyone I voted for 0bama. I don’t flippin’ care, and neither do the kids and their families that will benefit.
