Are you a Penn State student sick of eating the same food at the Hub, Findlay, and the other dining commons? I know I was. So, here are some of my favorite alternative restaurants that surround Penn State!

1. Inferno Pizza

340 E College Ave, State College, PA

Coming from Northern Jersey it's been hard for me to find a pizza place as good as the pizza back home. However, Inferno proved me wrong. Go listen to Inferno's live jazz every Sunday from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM and enjoy a delicious slice of their pizza.

2. Cozy Thai

232 South Allen St, State College, PA

Some of the best Pad Thai I've ever had!! Cozy Thai is good for birthday dinners and going out to dinner with friends and family!

3. Cafe Laura

201 Mateer Building, University Park, PA

Cafe Laura is a student-run restaurant! Although it is on Penn State's campus, it doesn't feel like it is when you're sitting in their beautifully designed dining room. The best part about Cafe Laura is they accept meal points!

4. Sakura Sushi and Asian Cuisine

1525 S Atherton St, State College, PA

Whether you're in the mood for sushi or sesame chicken, Sakura has all the asian food you could ask for. Their quick service and exquisite cuisine makes Sakura great for a sushi night!

5. The Naked Egg

320 Pine Grove Rd, State College, PA

Some of the best homemade breakfast in State College! I say it's even better than the Waffle Shop!

6. Big Bowl Noodle House

418 East College Ave, State College, PA

Some of the best miso soup I've ever had!

7. Sowers Harvest Cafe

421 East Beaver Ave, State College, PA

This Amish cafe has some of the best homemade food in State College. They have breakfast and lunch! Their homemade drinks and freshly made breakfast sandwiches will make your day!

8. Tadashi

206 W College Ave, State College, PA

By far some of the best sushi I've eaten in State College, PA! Their signature Angry Dragon Roll is served on fire! Their special Ramen Bowls is some of the best soup I've ever had.

9. The Field

1 Country Club Lane, State College, PA

The Field is a classic "go to" restaurant that every PSU student should try before they graduate. Their signature burgers, chips, and milkshakes are what make The Field special. The Field is located at the Toftrees Country Club, so it's great for a birthday dinner!

10. Barrel 21

2255 N Atherton St, State College, PA

By far the best restaurant in State College, PA! Their high end menu and classy atmosphere makes Barrel 21 a great place for when the family visits.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
