Armstrong, Class of 1960, said
maintaining a presence on the
Penn State campus remains vital
to his campaign.
"This is absolutely essential to
get the students involved,”
Armstrong said.

rallying for a Beaver Stadium

He began by writing letters to

Big Ten) on Saturday at TCF Bank
Stadium, snapping the team’s
two-game losing streak.

Bolden, who underwent concus

Penn State spokesman Geoff
Rushton said the addition of the

attempting to consolidate the
