I'm extremely involved in my college's alumni association on a national level, and I can understand the sense of betrayal that some people might be feeling; others might be taking it a little too far. It seems like you're just being overly sensitive.

You know nothing about my life or family structure. How dare you assume that I don't know anything about kids from "broken homes!" Obviously, he used his position to target some of the most vulnerable children in a community. There's no denying that. How does that make me "stupid?" Of course, that's the first thing you'd come up with--because you don't seem to be the brightest bulb in the chandelier.

Anyway...I really hope this doesn't stretch as far as it's starting to look.
I don't seem like the brightest bulb...and you assumed that through??? Say whatever you want. I didn't mean you didn't experience a broken home. I was saying I wouldn't expect you to understand what we are going through at Penn State (as students and alumni). I was referring to the fact that you are not, nor have you ever been a student at PSU. I'm not bright? Apparently, reading comprehension is not your strongest suit.

I'll chalk this up to you being upset, just as many of us are and I won't take your harsh words to heart (as you shouldn't really take mine to heart, either). This whole situation sucks. I just ask that you and other people who are not associated with the school don't give dirty looks to or make nasty remarks about PSU students/ alumni who wear their gear with pride. I've already talked to some sisters and they have experienced nasty comments and dirty looks.

Right now, WE ARE...broken...

I don't want to seem like I'm jumping on you, but this doesn't have anything to do with Munchkin03's post. She was not talking about PSU -- she was talking about Second Mile and the type of children it catered to.

Penn State is bigger than this scandal. The university and even the football program will continue to exist.
