The program has two goals: influencing Diavolo’s new per formance, the world premiere which will be held at Eisenhower Auditorium, and producing three student performances, on- and off campus. Currently, the CPA and Diavolo are developing the new arts course, trying to recruit students and figuring out the schedule for when Diavolo will visit Penn State. The courses that go along with the program will only be offered during fall 2011 and spring 2012, but CPA Audience and Program Development Director Amy Vashaw said the goal of the project attended an Internet safety con ference was concerned about pro tecting information. The student approached him about deleting the student’s website from the Penn State servers. “I came to realize that there were no good sources out there for the young adult population regarding Internet safety,” Sechler said. “Most of the books were geared toward parents and how to talk to their kids about it. There was nothing for the kids themselves on what to do and how to protect themselves.” Young people need to know that when they put personal informa tion online, risks are involved, Sechler said, citing status updates and away messages as examples. 23.90 30.35 36.80 6.45 PORRENT FALL 2011 HOUSES / apts beside west campus for 6to 13+ people, newly built or newly remodeled: 434 W.

When Diavolo —which features dancers, gymnasts and actors who collaborate for performances on moving structures per formed at Penn State in 2006, “something just clicked,” Vashaw said. “We knew we were going to do something together again,” said Vashaw, who is also the project’s director. And after two rounds of applica tions over four years, Vashaw said she felt “panic mixed with joy” when she heard Penn State won the grant. “It was an ‘Oh wow!’ moment that we get the privilege to exe cute this, but also ‘Oh wow, now we have to execute it,’ ” she said. The group is excited about Diavolo’s use of people interacting with moving objects and wants to add in the impact of landscape.

The book cov ers why it’s important for young adults to maintain a professional appearance online, Sechler said. “Your online reputation will def initely affect your job search,” Sechler said. “It’s a tough job mar ket as it is, and something as sim ple as what profile picture you have on Facebook can make or break your application process.” FEMALE ROOMMATE NEEDED CAR INSURANCE MONTHLY dadicim/- QDarcc mo rant for Copper Beach (W.
