This morning I walked across campus to see the site where the Joe Paterno statue had been. The statue was removed over the weekend, and early this week the groundwork and walls around the statue were destroyed. Two levels of barricades surround the site. A police officer stands guard.
I’m sure the bowl-themed banner will come down soon.
A pile of soil sits where the statue used to reside.
It’s a far different scene than the last time I was at this location.
What the area looked like the last time I saw it.
