      Pretty rich coming from either party at this point. It's time we get an age maximum in there, same as we have a minimum age. Should be a public office standard where you can only run if you are between 25-69 years of age.

Growing up in that era it still makes me cringe to see Joey Yinzer wearing a Bubby Brister jersey to church. The modern theory is "we're just happy you're here."

          We don’t spread false narratives. We are the adults.

              Let's please get back to PASSHE and sports-related topics so I'm not reminded about the increasing stupidity abroad in the U.S.

                You underestimate how many more people despise him than those who think he’s so great.

                He’s a dementia patient.

                        Yep. IUP is still somewhat structured as a smaller research university. They reduced down from how they were structured when they were at 15,000 students. Now they're about 9,000 students and many of their graduate programs are hurting. 35 academic departments for a 9,000 student school is a waste because that's 35 professors who get paid extra to be department chair on top of teaching fewer classes plus departmental office support staff. That new science building is simply stunning (although maybe not yet finished because the construction fencing was still up in the back a few weeks ago?) and is instantly a great asset on the level of the KCAC but its the other areas of the university that are flagging. IUP was first of the PASSHE in a lot of things for a long time but that is no longer the case. They have to operate as just another PASSHE campus but with PhD programs.

                          The part about the state intervening is probably inevitable and might be the best thing for IUP.

                          IUP lost its independence 40 years ago when the state intervened to the detriment of the university. The resources that are there might be better utilized under state control.

                            You seem to have lived your life in a perpetual cycle of "hurt."

                              IUP lives rent free in your head. Too bad that doesn’t help the deficit.

                              The funny thing is Harrisburg would most likely shut down East Dennyburg before they’d close IUP.

                                We were dragged down by everyone else.

                                Isnt that always the case?
