At Penn State, Franco Harris played alongside running back Lydell Mitchell. The duo formed a strong backfield during their time at the university in the late 1960s, contributing to the team's success. Both players went on to have notable careers in the NFL, with Harris becoming a Hall of Famer and Mitchell also achieving recognition in professional football.
Oh, dude, it was William Penn who founded Pennsylvania. Yeah, like, back in the late 1600s, he got a land grant from King Charles II and decided to start a colony for Quakers. So, like, thanks to him, we have Philly cheesesteaks and the Liberty Bell. Cool, right?
http://www.psu.edu/ur/about/nittany.html "The origins of "Nittany" are a bit obscure, but most likely the word comes from a Native American term meaning, "single mountain." (Since a number of Algonquian-speaking tribes inhabited central Pennsylvania, the term can't be traced to one single group.) The description applied to the mountain that separates what is today Penns Valley and Nittany Valley, with its western end overlooking the community of State College and Penn State's University Park campus. The first colonial settlers in the 1700s adopted this term, or a variation of it, in formally naming Nittany Mountain." I dedicate this wonderful answer to my young niece, who's middle name is Nittany, a "single mountain." My family is part Quaker from the late 1660's, the John Ehrich Shinn family on a ship named Kent, from England, and we're part Lenni-Lenape indian. We are related to William Penn, and God bless PA, PLEASE, because we need it really bad today! I personally have an Electrical Engineering degree from Penn State University. I AM, PA proud, and WE ARE a Penn State proud family. Not rich, but real people in this difficult world today! God Bless the USA! Be a single mountain!

; Pennsylvania : American colony, later U.S. state, 1681, lit. "Penn's Woods," a hybrid formed from the surname Penn (Welsh, lit. "head") + L. sylvania (see sylvan). Not named for William Penn, the proprietor, but, on suggestion of Charles II, for Penn's late father, Admiral William Penn (1621-70), who had lent the king the money that was repaid in the form of land for a Quaker settlement in America. Penn wanted to call it New Wales, but the king's secretary, a Welshman of orthodox religion, wouldn't hear of it. Pennsylvania Dutch is attested from 1824. Pennsylvanian in ref. to a geological system is attested from 1891. ; sylvan : 1565, "deity of the woods," from M.Fr. sylvain, from L. silvanus "pertaining to wood or forest" (originally only in silvanæ "goddesses of the woods"), from silva "wood, forest, grove," of unknown origin. Adj. meaning "of the woods" is attested from 1580. Silvanus was used by the Romans as the proper name of a god of woods and fields, identified with Pan. Spelling with -y- infl. by Gk. hyle "forest," from which the L. word was supposed to derive.
