On Saturday and Sunday the International Student Council hosted its annual International Soccer Tournament Penn State's version of the World Cup. “This feels like the World Cup," said Jinghao Lu (senior-sociology), the council's president. “Penn State is so diverse with people from different countries and this is a good place for them to meet.” Sixteen teams representing different countries or continents gathered on West Field, the soccer fields behind the Information Sciences and Technology Building, to meet other students, show off their soccer skills and win the tournament. In the end, Team America walked away with the first place trophy, followed by the Khaleeji Student Association and Team Brasil F.C. Since 1983, the student organization has gathered Penn State's international students on the field to play soccer. For the past 20 years, the organization has a plaque recording every winner of the tournament. "We are all from all over the world and the one thing that brings us together is sports," said Jeremiah Cunningham, the event's coordinator. “Sports is about coming together and we are doing it on a global scale.” About 200 students registered to play the tourna ment and consisted of eight v. eight matches. The organization provided Gatorade and water to help keep the players hydrated. Jonathan Ortiz (junior-information science and tech nology) said he enjoyed seeing the different cultures and clubs together playing soccer. “We are recreating FIFA an event where every one is equal on the field," Ortiz said. In the past, the soccer tournament was held once a year but will now be held every semester due to the growing popularity. “You can’t always be yourself," Cunningham (senior communication arts and sciences and English) said. “But when you are on the field you can let go and be yourself, and what better way to do that than with your friends?” :FREE «[P\[O>STM with purchase of a 1 'two topping 18" pizza * appoints new trustees to board and Lubert-Adler Partners, will assume a second term, Rushton said.

Andrew Paterson said. "We hope it will either attract people to live hen* or spread our way of living." There are 19 total residents in the two houses that are next door to each other on College Avenue. The Co-op’s main house, where members hold meetings and eat meals together, houses 10 residents, and nine more live in the other house. But Paterson (junior-psychology and integrative arts) said they all make sure to come together for dinner every night. The meals are typically vegetarian, but Paterson said no one complains. "We do get excellent food here," he said. In addition, everyone in the house must complete five labor hours per week. These duties may include cook ing. cleaning, getting food for the time of turmoil at Penn State. “I offer my experience, but I also have to learn from people Business Executive MBA Program graduate’s three-year term will expire on June 30, 2013, Rushton said.

One of Tristan Cleveland s favorite things about the house is the like minded company that it provides. It contrasts the feeling of loneliness she felt while living in the dorms. “If I have a hard day I can come back here to talk and laughter and a hot, wholesome meal." Cleveland (senior-landscape architecture) said. "Living in the dorms is more distant." Andrew Orr went to the house for the first time to take the tour and learn to make hummus. He said he used to walk past the house every day and never actually went in. but he had a positive experi ence on Saturday. "It was fun," Orr (graduate acoustics) said. "Everyone was very polite and I learned how to make hum mus."
