Congrats on your seniority, Olelion.

PSU certainly does have some prosaic and interesting names for things. Shunk Hall, Beaver Stadium, Beaver Avenue, etc.

Were you out-of-state? In-state tuition was $150/quarter when I was a freshman in 1967 (5th floor Shunk).
Actually that was the start of Freshmen orientation. Classes didn't start until Oct 3rd. We were on quarters schedule, 10 wks/qtr. Tuition, room and board was $425/qtr or $1275/year. Crazy wasn't it?

50 years ago, I started at Luerrssen Science Building at Berks campus. $375 a tri-mester. No room and board available. I think we wrote the line "Ya don't have to go home, but you can't stay here."
