My name is Zachary Robert Orndorff. I enjoy writing, and talking, which is why I am here, in Journalism. But that’s not the only reason. I watch sports all the time, and I have many idols. All my life I’ve wanted to be there in person with all the football and basketball players I love. One of the only ways I could do that is being a journalist--out there on the floor asking them questions. And I love being in front of cameras, for some reason.  One of my idols was Stuart Scott, and someday hopefully I could become like him through Journalism.

The State College Area School Board approved the purchase of this traffic light at a school board meeting. State High Junior Brennan Dorefice said, “In my opinion I feel the traffic lights are really going to be useful and that the purchase was worth it.” As young drivers and high schoolers cross the street, the traffic light will not only make this daily transition more efficient, but safer.
