Professor stresses athletes’ education

In a Friday afternoon lecture to

society has reverted back to the
images of the jock and cheer

taken a backseat to universities

Burns said that Dylan has done
a lot for the music industry by
being different. He said that
Dylan tends to not use formalized
structures in his songs, something
that kills a lot of current main
stream songs.
Burns said one reason he loves
Dylan is because he’s a tad
bizarre, something he attributed
to Dylan's Asperger’s Syndrome.

He said that one of Dylan’s best
features is also his downfall.
Dylan is critically acclaimed for
his lyrics, but Burns said some
times they lack any poetic soul,
often telling a story in a “he said,

that.” Bums said. “That’s terrible

Blair Brown and the rest of
the Nittany Lions women’s vol
leyball team know that on any
given night in the Big Ten, any
team can win and any team can
lose.
On Friday night, No. 2 Penn
State lost.
No. 9 Illinois knocked off the
Lions, 3-2 (17-25, 25-14, 25-19, 14-
25,17-15), snapping Penn State's
string of 65-consecutive confer
ence wins that dated back to
Nov. 11, 2006. The Lions forced
the Fighting Illini to a fifth set
and even had match point at 14-
13, but failed to close it out and
fell, 17-15.
A kill by Illinois outside hitter
Laura Deßruler and a hitting
error by Brown ended the hard
fought, five-set thriller in front of
a sold-out crowd of 4,141 at Huff
Hall in Champaign, 111., the third
largest turnout for a volleyball
game in the building’s history.
“It definitely kind of showed
us that we can't let up." said
Brown, a senior co-captain and
opposite hitter. “I think that we
played well the rest of the time.
We just really needed to finish it
when we could.”
Penn State coach Russ Rose
said he was not disappointed
with the loss, but in the way the
Lions were defeated. Rose
pointed to the fact that some of
Illinois’ veteran players out
played Penn State’s more expe
rienced players, aside from
Lions middle hitter Arielle
Wilson, who tallied a .536 hitting
percentage in the loss.
