Experimenting in the bed
room may either be extreme
ly exciting and adventurous
or completely disastrous and
horrifying. Using obscure
objects such as whipped top
pings or a blindfold seem
to be the most common ex
perimentations. There's just
something about covering
yourself in a sweet treat for
your partner to lick off that
gets people going. (side note:
I've heard whipped cream
bikinis are a little bit more
difficult to apply than Holly
wood makes it seem. Try lay

Behrend vs. University
ALEC ITALIANO

The decision so many Beh
rend students are contem
plating at this point in the
school year is an imminent
one: should I stay or should I
go?
This question is as cut and
dry as a cold piece of beef
jerky for some people, while
for others, it is a long and
complicated question that can
only be answered through in
tense research and guidance
from advisors and parents.
Here I am to offer you
some compelling advice
from someone who has seen
ing down to put it on and take
advantage of gravity). More
than likely, a person will give
into a new experience with
someone they trust and know
better than just the small talk
they engaged in over a couple
of victorious games of beer
pong.
But what happens when
your partner brings out the
gag balls, whips and vibra
tors? Now you're on a whole
new playing field. Person
ally, the thought of gag balls
completely turns me off, but
there are some people into
that kind of shit. I did a little
digging on adamandeve.com
and I found a variety of fun

both sides of the argument;
someone who has seriously
thought about transferring
to both University Park and
other colleges, and who has
talked to a variety of students
who both love and hate the
Penn State University Park
appeal.
The first bit of advice for
anyone on the fence between
University Park and Behrend
would be to stay at Behrend.
Many students, especially
Behrend students for some
odd, particular reason, get
lost in the giant fish tank of
main campus. The one-on
one, small classroom appeal
of a smaller college is very

new play toys, although, to be
honest, some of them looked
pretty damn intimidating. For
example, this particular site
offers vibrators ranging from
.5" to 12" in length and < 1" to
4"+ in width. Functions var
ied as well, selling anything
from anal stimulators to wire
less remote. The fun isn't
over yet, though. Consumers
even have the opportunity to
pick the material of the toy.
A few options are latex, ny
lon, realistic and glass. Yes,
that's right, I said glass. You
know, that stuff that shatters
into tons of little pointy piec
es when broken. Why you
would stick a glass object into
any opening in your body is
beyond me.

ucts reach much farther on
the crazy scale than vibrators,
though. The Ultra Fantasy
real. Classes (again, from
what I have heard from trans
fer students) become more
difficult at University Park,
simply because of the multi
tude of people attending the
university.
It also depends on your
major. Any business major
contemplating transferring
should immediately stop
thinking and keep their be
longings in their apartment.
According to the U.S. News
& World Report, the Smeal
College of Business in State
College is ranked second
in the state, and Penn State
Behrend's Black School of
Business is ranked third in
Duffle Bag is an all-inclusive
bag for a sex-filled night. Its
contents include a vibrat
ing sex ball, a paddle, nipple
clamps, bondage tape, hot
wax candles, wrist and ankle
cuffs and so much more. All
this can be yours for the low
price of $199.99. Ladies, if
you're looking for some ac
tion but don't want human in
teraction, Adam and Eve have
you covered. The Virtual Sex
Cock and Ass is just a table
top mold of a man's waist to
thigh area. I hope money isn't
an object, because this little
sucker sells at $299.95. For
you gentlemen, the Bree Ol
son Doggie-Style Pussy and
Ass can be yours for $345.95.
After throwing down that
much cash, I hope you two
spend many heart-felt nights
together.
So when is it okay to drag
the state. It can be assumed
that a business student from
Behrend is just as equipped,
if not better equipped for the
business world, because of
the more interactive, personal
aspect of Behrend, especially
compared to that of a Penn
State's Smeal College of Busi
ness.
The true numbers from
the Bursar Office change
slightly on a year to year ba
sis, but the general ratio as to
who stays and who transfers
turns out to be around 80:20.
From what I have found out
by visiting University Park on
a number of occasions, most
students regret transferring.
out the box of toys from the
back of the closet? If you're
in a relationship, I say bring
it out whenever you need a
little spice in your sex life.
There's nothing wrong with
spontaneous play, as toys and
the like are one way to keep
things unpredictable and to
renew the romance. If you're
not in a relationship, howev
er, take caution before throw
ing something like a sex sling
at your partner. For those of
you riding solo, I'd suggest
only one thing: DO NOT play
with yourself with your room
mate in the room. There is
nothing more disturbing than
listening to someone else go
to their happy place. Other
than that, have at it.
So, fellow students, I'll
leave you with a few parting
words of wisdom. If you're
going to experiment with
o stay or to go.
There are always a few stories
of people transferring back to
Behrend every year from Uni
versity Park for various rea
sons, and there always will
be. Those who were forced to
transfer often said they wish
they could have finished their
collegiate years at Behrend.
One last interesting trend I
have noticed from my travels
to State College is that a lot of
students originally from Beh
rend continue to hang out and
stick together with each other
after transferring. The rea
soning behind this is some
what expected, but rumors
spark up from time to time
about students from Univer
0 I him
objects in the bedroom, do it
with someone you trust. If the
situation ends up in disaster,
it could lead to a pretty awk
ward moment of eye contact
on campus. With new part
ners, keep your pocket puss
ies/penises concealed. And
most importantly, always be
sure to clean your sex toys
after playing with them. After
all, no one wants to play with
used toys.

f
sity Park not being welcom
ing to transfer students. This
would certainly explain why
Behrend students tend to stay
clumped together post-trans
fer.
In the end, this is the de
cision of each individual stu
dent. If it is your dream to
attend Penn State University,
then by all means transfer
and don't look back. But for
those of you under constant
worry about the situation,
take into consideration some
of the arguments brought up
in this article and make sure
your decision is made with
100 percent confidence be
fore it is too late to turn back.
