Joe Paterno to resign at end of season

[Lamplighter]

Apparently, the statue of Joe Parterno is going to remain at PSU,
but that may not be the end of the story about memorials to him.

This is an NY Times editorial that I believe is well worth reading in it's entirety.
But if you really don't want to do that, here are the last 2 paragraphs.

Leave the Statue, to Remember

<snip>
Arguing for the statue’s removal, the legendary coach Bobby Bowden said
he wouldn’t want Sandusky’s crimes “brought up every time I walked out on the field.”
That’s the point.
Sandusky’s crimes should never be forgotten, nor should the crimes of the broader community.
It is shameful to deify men who put nationalist ritual before children.
But it is more shameful to pretend that this elevation was achieved by Joe Paterno’s singular hand.

Removing the Paterno statue allows Happy Valley to forget its own compliance
in a national crime, to expunge its own culpability in its ruthless pursuit of glory.
The statue should remain, and beneath it there should be a full explanation
of Sandusky’s crimes, Paterno’s role and some warning to all of us
who would turn a pastime into a god and elect a mortal man as its avatar.
