Finding Comfort in Our Community

“In a cold world, you still need your friends to keep you warm.” (The Big Chill, 1983)
As we say goodbye to Coach Paterno, Penn Staters everywhere can take comfort in friends and in the deep sense of community that we are so fortunate to enjoy as Penn State alumni. Looking back, Joe played a role in the best times of our lives – from tailgating to Bowl trips to games at Beaver Stadium.
For many of us, they still continue to this day. Joe’s passing reminds us of what is most important in life: our lifelong connections to those who mean the most, including our SAE
brothers.
There are plenty of opportunities to celebrate being a part of the Penn State community with the friends you met there:
THON – February 17-19. You can honor Joe’s wish (a fraternity guy himself) by making a donation to this great cause.
Founders' Day Dinner - March 15
Golf Outing 2012 - April 13-14
Blue/White Weekend – April 20-22
Class of 1961, '62 & '63 Reunion - June 1-2
Arts Fest – July 12-15

Former Federal Law Enforcement Member and SAE Alum Addresses Current Penn State Case Standing
After growing up in Delaware, I attended the Pennsylvania State University, graduating with a B.S. in Administration of Justice in 1992. Residing now in St. Louis, Missouri, I am a Special Agent with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) and have been in that position since 2004 and in federal law enforcement since 1995. I am also a member of ATF’s Special Response Team (swat) and a firearms instructor. In the course of my duties with ATF, I have received two awards from the United States Attorney’s Office for outstanding investigative case work. Outside of my law enforcement functions, I am a member of the Penn State Alumni Association, Missouri Chapter of the Alumni Association, The Nittany Lion Club, the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association and a past president of my home owner’s association.
