(Less Than) 100 Days ‘Til THON!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at PSU chapter.

The energy on campus shot up to a whole new level yesterday, with the HUB exploding into a swirl of color and celebration: THON is only 100 (well, 99) days away!

Only 100 days until the Penn State community comes together for a charity event unlike any other. Only 100 days until everyone’s hard work comes to an exhilarating height for the kids. Only 100 days until Happy Valley comes Together Without Limits!

Even Khloe Kardashian is counting down. It’s time to get excited, Penn State! Looks like you’ve been doing a good job of that already–keep it up!

What do you THON for?

Jen Kach is the most enthusiastic English major you'll ever meet at Penn State. Not a drop of British blood runs in her veins, but with her passion for literature and creative writing, she may as well have been born in the country of Shakespeare and Charles Dickens! Once she graduates from Happy Valley, she hopes to take the publishing world by storm, working either in book publishing or the magazine industry. At the top of her list, though, are novels...her ultimate dream is to write several of them! At Penn State, she is the managing editor for Valley magazine, a writing center tutor, and a member of Ed2010. An ardent believer in La Vie Boheme, she is in love with love, art, coffee shops, music, and classic films. She loves the little things in life, will never forget seeing the Goo Goo Dolls live in concert, and firmly believes that, when all else is said and done, there is no problem that Jane Austen can't fix.
