Not Your Grandmother’s Wallpaper

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

Where else can you find Lady Gaga next to Monet and The Boondock Saints next to Dali? Held for the first week of the school year, the poster sale at Penn State offers a variety of ways to decorate your new dorm room or apartment. From posters and tapestries to frames and magnets, the poster sale has something for everyone. It’s pictured here on its spot on the HUB lawn, where Caitlin Conn flips through a stack trying to find the perfect addition to her bare walls and Adam Berger compares good and bad posters with his friends. Drawing a large crowd each day, the poster sale is certainly a “must-attend” on campus.

Did you buy any posters at the sale? Which ones?

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.
