Penn State still does not understand that Joe Paterno is not a man who should be honored and will be doing just that.
The school announced Thursday in a press release that on Sept. 17 they will commemorate the 50th anniversary of Paterno’s first game as head coach of the Nittany Lions. This commemoration will take place before and throughout Penn State’s game against Temple.

Paterno died in Jan. 2012, months after being dismissed by the school for his role in the child sex abuse scandal that surrounded the program.
Recent information indicates Paterno was told about child sex abuse allegations against Jerry Sandusky as early as 1971 but did nothing to stop the abuse and allowed Sandusky to continue being a part of the program. Sandusky was not convicted of child sex abuse until June 2012, decades after he allegedly began sexually assaulting children.
