Puts a whole new spin on “making a federal case” out of something!
The Sandusky scandal has been discussed at great length here on CC and in the national press. I don’t see any reason the rehash that here. Also, Penn State is very expensive, in state and out, and Schreyer merit money is relatively nominal because the program is top notch and doesn’t need to offer big bucks to attract outstanding students. Penn State is a great school with a very good theater program, and most big flagships care about their athletic teams while also being home to lots of happy and productive students with no interest in them whatsoever.
