Penn State's Garban Steps Down, Archdiocese of Philadelphia New Superintendents

The former chairman of the Penn State board of trustees resigned on Thursday, becoming the first board member to do so in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.
Steve Garban was harshly criticized over his handling of the crisis that engulfed Penn State after Sandusky's arrest last November, and he faced persistent calls from alumni and fellow board members to step down.

A fifth teenager has been arrested in connection to the alleged gang rape of a 12-year-old girl inside the Francis Myers Recreation Center in Southwest Philadelphia.
Four of the juveniles, who are all between 14 and 15 years old, have been charged with Rape, Criminal Conspiracy, Simple Assault and related offenses. The fifth teen has not yet been charged.

The Archdiocese of Philadelphia has decided to split up the duties of superintendent of schools and has hired two in-house professionals to oversee operations of the elementary schools and high schools.
Carol Cary is the new superintendent responsible for management of the 17 high schools in the archdiocese.
Jacqueline Coccia was elevated to the newly created position of superintendent for the 123 elementary schools in the archdiocese.
