Penn State-Etehrend was paid an
unexpected visit last Wednesday
by Westerville, Ohio native Paul
Stamm.
Most Behrend students identify
him better as the crazy preacher
who was denouncing everything
while standing next to the Reed
Building.
Preacher Stamm was on his
way back from Mansfield, PA
when he decided to stop at
Behrend.
He said he stopped on a college
campus because he believes that
"students are apathetic towards
the deeper things in life."

This year, homecoming
weekend has been renamed
Parents and Families/Home
coming Weekend.
David Shields, Director of
Student Activities, said the name
is not the only change instituted.
"We have revamped the event
to make it more of a relaxing
weekend," Shields said. "This is
usually a time for people to come
back and catch up on memories,
but we added a chance for families
to see students in a less hectic
atmosphere."
The festivities begin on Friday,
October 1 with a 4 p.m.
registration and welcoming
reception at the Wintergarden
Cafe.
Following that are a number of
events: at 6 p.m. there is a
family cookout at the Wilson
Picnic Grove for $6.55 per
person, a 7:30 p.m. pep
rally/bonfire at the ski slope, and
a Karaoke dance at Bruno's from

interested in sports, rock 'n roll,
and the opposite sex," Stamm
said. "At the minimum, I try to
provoke people to think."
He claims to be a non
denominational Christian,
because his views are unlike any
modern sect of Christianity.
"I preach the gospel, warning
the wicked to repent. I try to lead
by example," Stamm said.
Stamm said his message was
not really intended towards
Christians.
"Christians don't need to repent
for they have already repented
because they are Christian."
As Stamm was escorted off
campus by Police and Safety, he
continued to yell out his trigger
phrases, "Turn or burn. Repent
or parish."
