ON CHOOSING PENN STATE: 'As I was driving toward campus for an unofficial visit, I saw the stadium in the distance. I knew it was big, but I didn[apos]t realize just how big it really was until I was right next to it. I immediately fell in love with the campus itself. Throughout my visit, as I learned more about the school, the amazing traditions and the opportunities the university had to offer, I just knew this was the place I wanted to be.'
