The one article said, "We’ve got to stop treating football as a religion." Every person who even heard about these atrocities is as guilty as the man or men who perpetuated them.

And please don't insult my intelligence by saying this is a Pitt-PSU thing. It's an issue of responsibility and moral conduct, period.

honeychile, I def. don't think this is about a Pitt-PSU thing. You are 100% right about this! I am disgusted. I went as far as pulling everything PSU-related off my FB page because I am that upset. I called my mother to request she not buy me anything PSU-related for Christmas or my birthday. I know people are going to say that it's not the whole school and this or that but, truthfully--this whole time I have defined much of who I am by the education I have received at such an incredible university. When you base a lot of who you are on something like that and this happens--you feel as though part of your identity has been ripped from you (and I'm not even one of the poor victims). I cry as I write this. This is a sad day.
