The concert, which is free for
students, brought Less Than

It will also allow them to make
suggestions on its website or at
public committee meetings. said
Haynes (senior-energy, business
and finance).
The committee also plans to
utilize a more effective public
relations campaign to get the
word out to students.
"It's essential that we come

Joe Paterno answers questions
at a Big Ten press conference.
QB

Bolden not
likely to play
By Audrey Snyder
COLLEGIAN STAFF WRITER
Joe Paterno wants people to
take a close look at the end of his
last name.
"I don't have an MD after my
name, and I'm not a psychia
trist," Paterno said.
But Penn State's head coach
said quarterback Rob Bolden
will undergo more concussion
tests Wednesday and guessed
the freshman would not be
ready to play Saturday night
against Michigan.
"I'd guess he's not gonna
make it, but that does not mean
that I know what I'm talking
about," Paterno said. "We'd love
to have him play, but we're not
gonna take any chances."
Paterno on the Big Ten coach
es teleconference downgraded
Bolden to very doubtful despite
being listed as probable on this
week's depth chart. Matt
McGloin and Kevin Newsome
will compete for the starting job
this week if Bolden is unable to
play.
Newsome returned to prac
tice Monday after missing time
last week because of illness, and
Paterno said Newsome is at full
strength, and the knee injury he
suffered against the Gophers
was not serious.
Right guard Stefen
Wisniewski said if Bolden is
unable to go. he doesn't think the
offense will be limited. McGloin's
arm strength and Newsome's
legs bring a different dimension
to the offense, Wisniewski said.
Paterno would not give a
definitive answer when asked if
he would use a two-quarterback
system this week but said the
team will play it by ear.
"We're gonna let the kids com
pete this week with the idea that
we probably won't have Bolden
and see what happens." Paterno
said.
Scouting for Robinson

terback Denard Robinson, the
Lions are trying to find a player
with enough quickness to mimic

work towards a sustainable future
here at Penn State," he said. "The
goals that fEco-Action] went into
the meeting with were found
mutually important between the
students and administration."
Currently, the university has a
goal in place to reach a carbon
emission reduction of 17.5 percent
by 2012, Nagy said.
