This casino would irrevocably deteriorate our local and university community.

I am vehemently opposed to the introduction of a casino so close to our neighborhood and Penn State University! Students have enough challenges with tuition prices increasing exponentially. The alcohol problem among the students will only fuel more abuse.

Casinos bring crime to the area surrounding it. We don't want that here!

As a pastor in our local community, I stand opposed to bringing a casino to the Nittany Mall. Statistics reveal that having a casino in a community increases crime, addictions and poverty. Why would anyone ever want to see their community disintegrate spiritually, morally and economically? I believe you'll find that most local residents are against this proposal. Please do not bring this to the Centre County region.

If the Nittany Mall Casino is approved, the developers have pledged to honor the support of Old Main by renaming it the Stonewall Barron Casino. Keep fighting this casino to ensure its parking lot remains barren.

A casino is NOT in the long-term interests of the State College community. It disproportionately preys upon students and lower-income members of our community, has a negative effect on property values and the health of the area, and the bulk of the proceeds go to stakeholders that have no local presence in our community.

I am a local teacher. I have lived and taught in communities with casinos and have seen first hand the detrimental effects that addiction and the proximity of a casino can have on adults and their children.

Casinos are sad depressing places. Places where people think they are going to strike it rich quickly. All that ends up happening is people losing money and becoming addicted. We do not need this in state college.

I would love to see the mall become a healthy venue for Centre County. There is a huge demand and desire for pickleball here, and the combination of pickleball and food is a hit across the country. Older folks could come do their walking in the mall in the winter, and then get hooked on pickleball. The community has enough players already to support it, and if you build it, they will come!!

A casino would be destructive to the community so I strongly oppose one being established in Centre County or elsewhere.

We are very strongly opposed to allowing a casino in Centre County. It is bad for our community, and very bad near a university.
