The statement reads in part, "Our thoughts and prayers continue to go out to those victims of Mr. Sandusky and all other victims of child abuse ... I now believe that, contrary to its original intention, Coach Paterno's statue has become a source of division and an obstacle to healing in our University and beyond."

Statement from Penn State: Removal of the Joe Paterno Statue
As received this morning. Personally I think this is a good idea that truly is in the best interests of the University. Good move on the part of President Erickson, although I suspect there will be some Paterno-worshipers out there who will object. Note to them: your hero enabled a pedophile. Deal with it.
