Letter to the editor | Keep the tradition

Published: August 30, 2012 

After all the scrutiny of Penn State recently, deserved or undeserved, Penn State should do what all people with integrity and honesty should do: Know thyself and stick to traditions.

We are Penn State — not individuals, but a community, a collective of people whom make up this proud Penn State fan base, trying to achieve excellence in the pursuit of academics and athletics for the benefit of all.

Help your neighbor, you help yourself. So reconsider applying names on Penn State jerseys. That would alter Penn State traditions: “we” as opposed to “I.”

Our time now is a call to reason! As a fan, I like the man in the mirror, I bet you do too!
