Wyatt DuBois, the school's director of University Public Relations, told The Associated Press that Penn State is not challenging the distribution of newspapers on the racks or otherwise.

Penn State removed nearly three dozen racks containing its independent student-produced newspaper from on-campus locations last week because politics-related ads on the racks violated school policy.they were not notified of the racks' removal Wednesday night and have not been told where they are being stored. However, they said they expected the racks to be returned sometime Friday without the ads.

There was a discussion with the newspaper’s general manager, Wayne Lowman, about the ads possibly violating university rules. But the newspaper said Lowman was never notified of plans to remove the newsstands. The racks were removed for only a short time to remove the advertising, DuBois said, and are in place so that the papers can be easily accessed on campus. The display of the paper version of the Daily Collegian is permitted, as the University supports free news and information sources specifically for its students, he said.
