Weâve broken down the meaning behind all of this yearâs THON lyrics.
Nittany nation, let s take flight // altogether reach newâ¯heightsâ¯â¯
21, our new chapter // find a cure, what weâre afterâ¯â¯
This refers to it being a new year, 2021. The âcureâ refers to the fight against childhood cancer.

Through the year, we will shine // Hey Penn State, rewind
VERSE 1
Zoom takes over campus classes // Grab your sweats and blue lightâ¯glassesâ¯â¯
Many Penn State classes have been on Zoom over the past year due to the coronavirus.
During quarantine, many wore sweatpants and blue light glasses during Zoom classes.
