PINK AND BLACK WERE ORIGINAL PSU COLORS
(from The Daily Collegian ) Feb.. 17, 1959
Back in 1887 the classes of The Penn-7.
sylvania State Universitk had chosen pink
and black as the official class colors - ,
The following year a rash of pink and black
blazers appeared on campus,
According to the reminiscences of
George R. Meek of the class of 1890 the sun
soon turned the pink to white and took
the jetness out of the black. The official
colors were shortly changed to blue and
white.
So you see if the blazers of the 188 VS
had been made of color-fast dyes, you might
be singing.the praises of the pink and black
instead of the familiar blue and white.
