OT: Help make a difference re:the psu situation
Hey mgobloggers, I realize there is a comprehensive psu news thread but I thought this deserved its on thread. I also read another message board insidemdsports and one of the posters their is the creator of occupy herbstreit (funny stuff if you never heard of it). Anyways he is trying to show college football fans can care more about just football. In an effort ot make a difference he has set up a donation page at RAINN which is the nations largest anti-sexual assault organization. I hope you all consider making a donation, they do some great work including education. Here is a link to the statement by occupy Herbstreit:http://occupyherbstreit.tumblr.com/post/12598917456/a-message-from-occupy-herbstreit
And for where you can make the donation:

Any donation can help, and I hope everyone has a great day.
Sincerely,

This should remain its own thread because it deserves special prominence, not to be buried among the rest of the PSU chatter.

Be a great charity for PSU to donate the gate revenue to this Saturday.

I believe they are having a "blue-out" with the proceeds from the blue shirts going to such a charity. There might be more to it than that.

"The color blue coincides with the Blue Ribbon Campaign to Prevent Child Abuse.
The official Facebook event page for the Blue Out states that McLanahan's in State College will be selling "Stop Child Abuse, Blue Out Nebraska" shirts, and that 100% of proceeds made (after cost) will go to Prevent Child Abuse PA."
