PENN STATE

Athletic Director Sandy Barbour and other members of the athletic department and faculty held the third and final town hall meeting in discussion of the appraisal of Penn State’s athletic facilities on Wednesday night in Rec Hall. Much of the line of questioning, among a few about the “loud music” played during football games and the concern about facilities outside those for football, concerned the “renovate or rebuild” argument surrounding Beaver Stadium — or the potential to “scale back” the stadium’s seating that renovating might require. Penn State has hired Populous, an outside firm, to appraise the options the university has in regard to improving its 19 athletic facilities. -Jourdan Rodrigue, Centre Daily Times, Read More
