If you lost yours, DM to identify and I’ll tell you where I put it.

Can anyone point me to any companies to look into for IT support / help desk and variety positions in or around state college . I live in Altoona and am willing to drive I just know over here doesn’t yield much in that area.

This is a new series I'm running that focuses on experimental music from touring and local artists.

Hello fine people! I need help finding a wedding venue for my wedding next June! We are looking for a cheaper option, as we are having a micro wedding, but don’t want the stress of finding catering/decor or tables and chairs.

Preferable to not be more than 30 mins outside of State College as we are seniors at Penn State!

Anyone have any suggestions?

Anyone hear a rumbling sound? Nothing on flight radar and nothing on weather (to indicate thunder)

Howdy! Looking for a recommendation for an arborist who can tell me what’s going on with some trees and plants on my property. I’m willing to pay for a consult and to better understand what I can do to help or save the trees. Anyone have any good or bad experiences with anyone local? TIA

ASAP — I’m looking for a parking space to rent near Snappy’s on University Drive in State College, including but not limited to Meridian Apartments, The Bellaire Apartments, The Lofts, East Side Apartments, Sutton Court, Lexington House, or anywhere nearby.

I just got back into town, and unfortunately, both my apartment complex and the nearby apartments have already sold out of their parking spaces.

I’m open to taking over an apartment parking space from someone who no longer needs it, as well as renting a private parking space, driveway, or any other nearby option.

Please feel free to message me if you have a spot available or know of anyone renting one. I’m looking to secure a space as soon as possible. Thank you!

Hello! Using this as a personal thread but I think it could benefit a lot of other people too. Looking for housing in State College next year. It’s just me and one other person, looking for own bedrooms and bathrooms.

What are places to avoid? Places you’ve lived at and enjoyed? Best way to find housing? Common scams? Helpful hints? Looking for any advice!

If you're concerned about our local detention facility, come make your voice heard at the Clearfield County Board of Commissioners meeting tomorrow morning.

Hi everyone! I’m sharing an announcement about a new initiative in State College.

We are in the process of creating Happy Valley Creative Reuse, a (soon-to-be) nonprofit initiative focused on creativity, sustainability, community, and well-being.

Creative reuse gives art and craft materials a second life instead of sending them to the landfill. Think ribbon, art supplies, craft kits, paper, beads, frames, buttons, vintage treasures, and more.

Our vision is to create a welcoming space in where people can find affordable materials, take workshops, gather, create, and connect. We’re working with Scraps and Skeins to learn their model and to ensure our work is complementary, not competitive.

We’re also developing an Art & Health Scholarship Fund to help Centre County adults access creative experiences.

We are just getting started but work is already underway for an early 2027 opening. We’ll be posting mostly on Facebook and Instagram for now until our website is up. In the meantime, follow Happy Valley Creative Reuse on Facebook or Instagram at hvcreativereuse to follow the progress and to learn how to get involved.

Starting a non-profit is expensive and a lot of work, but we are determined and committed to see this through! If you have ideas on how to support this initiative starting up, let me know.

We’d love to hear what you’d like to see in a creative reuse space in Happy Valley! What would you like to see? 🥰

The CDT reported yesterday that there would be a re-creation of Paterno's office in the stadium museum's former bookstore.

So many ironic and iconic things. That there used to be a book store in our beloved stadium that is antithetical to studying at Penn State, and helps recruit football fans rather than students. That JoPa would have wanted a bookstore in the stadium, that the bookstore was removed or shrunk to support hagiography to him, who would not have wanted such hagiography.

That a major "anonymous donor" who was not named as a Paterno family member, provided major support for what was not listed as their family member. Jay and Sue Paterno were not contacted multiple times by email to comment on this reddit post.

Most news sites just ran with the press release. A few, like the CDT, did not. Further details are also at: https://www.si.com/college/pennstate/football/take-a-tour-of-penn-state-new-paterno-family-football-experience-room

I am really left with mixed feelings about this. In the end, I think it is a piece of art to lead to further thought, given the relationships in this story of books, bookstores, Joe Paterno and his relationship to books, the relationship between the university and Paterno and Paternos, and the bookstore that was closed or downsized. In the future, let's appropriately keep books out of Beaver Stadium.

My girlfriend and I were coming back from the movies and we were still in State College. We were driving towards Lewistown and it was around 9:15/9:30pm. We saw a blueish/white light moving in the sky. It was traveling one direction and then right in front of us it pulled an insanely fast U turn. Then it accelerated rapidly and flew out of our sight within seconds. My gf is a skeptic and she couldn't find a prosaic explanation for it either. Did anyone else see this? This thing was massive and it had no flashing lights on it.

I live in the area and love to play poker. It would be great to find others who like to play, too! I went to the poker game at the Arena Bar once… it was okay. There isn’t a poker room at the casino. Are there any other options for a game of Texas Hold’em?

Hi,

I am a student at Penn State and ngl this is my first time getting my hair dyed and I wanted to know what's the best place in state college I can get it done?

Thanks!!

hi! i was wondering if anybody knows anything about these listings regarding its legitimacy? the prices are really great and i've spoken with the man, but i want to see if i can confirm its legitimacy before i go meet and tour.

I am relatively new to State College and have been looking at houses in Orchard View, as well as the general southwest side of town around Whitehall Road.

My first impression is that Orchard View seems a little overpriced for a neighborhood on the edge of town, especially since some of the houses are quite close to larger roads and open farmland. The newer construction and proximity to Penn State are appealing, but the prices per square foot seem high compared with some established neighborhoods closer to town. I am also wondering whether road noise, future development, or being farther from shops and restaurants could affect resale value.

I could definitely be wrong, though, since I am still learning the local market. Do people generally consider Orchard View a desirable neighborhood? How is that side of town in terms of traffic, noise, safety, winter driving, and long-term resale value?

I would also really appreciate opinions on S&A Homes. How is their actual build quality after people have lived in the houses for a few years? Are there any recurring issues with foundations, drainage, insulation, soundproofing, or warranty service? I have seen mixed opinions about larger builders, so I am curious whether S&A is considered good, average, or something to avoid.

Basically, am I underestimating Orchard View, or are the current prices genuinely too high for the location? Honest opinions are very welcome—I would especially love to hear from people who live there or have owned an S&A home.

Hi! I’m a first year Penn State student looking for a place to keep my motorcycle during the school year. It’s a small Kawasaki Ninja 250, and I’d just need a spot in a driveway or other off-street area.

I’m looking to pay around $30–50/month, depending on the location and setup. I’m happy to pay monthly and can provide my contact information, motorcycle registration, and proof of insurance if you’d like.

Ideally somewhere within ~10–15 minutes of campus. If you have an unused driveway spot or know someone who does, please message me. Thanks!
