I have been concerned with helping Penn Stater’s receive an affordable education since I was a student. Back when I was the first president of the Undergraduate Student Government Academic Assembly ... I put together and distributed the University’s first, comprehensive directory of funding and scholarship options for students in the colleges....
It took a lot of phone calls and footwork to gather all the information from each of the colleges.

In a February 12 post to this group, Trustee Candidate Alvin de Levie (PSU ’73) claimed “I was the first president of the Undergraduate Student Government Academic Assembly”. This is simply not true. Not only was he not the first President of the Undergraduate Student Government (USG) Academic Assembly, the digital archives of The Daily Collegian contain no record that he ever served as its President...... The only information I can find about Alvin de Levie in The Daily Collegian digital archives is that he chaired the USG Department of Academic Affairs in 1971-72, and was Senior class elections official....
I fully appreciate that memories of what we did decades ago are not always correct. But if Mr. de Levie wasn’t sure of the name of the group he presided over he could have refreshed his memory within minutes by going to The Daily Collegian digital archives and searching for his own name.....
As one who also served in USG in 1971-72 (in the Academic Assembly), I find it hard to believe that faulty memory can account for the fact that Mr. de Levie, who was appointed to chair a committee in the USG executive branch, would instead claim that he held the far more important position of USG Academic Assembly President, the highest elective post within an elected (legislative) body.
Response from deLevie:
I do not think the "title" I held or the" branch" of student government I served in is important to those who were helped by the Guide....
To suggest I intentionally altered the truth is dead wrong and unfair. [INSERT: Really AD? Next, are you gonna' tell us all water isn't really wet?]
Response from Kenneth Jones:
If the title was unimportant why did you inflate it?
END OF MESSAGES
But this poser gets the PS4RS Board - whoever the hell they are - and the "Paterno" Seal of Approval.
Next, he might tell everyone about "That time I brought PSU to its knees in the Kadainov Suit"
