Seems like a worthy investment to me 🤷‍♂️

[Penn State Government and Community Relations @PennStateGov]

.@penn_state ranks 28th in national public universities and 60th overall out of 435 national universities in @usnews “Best Colleges” for 2024. Penn State also ranks 23rd among @AAUniversities public institutions and the top-ranked public university in PA.

Yesterday I said PA was starving public universities like @penn_state. Here's the proof. The chart below shows PSU funding since 2001. Last year, we received fewer actual dollars, NOT ADJUSTED FOR INFLATION, than we did 2006.
Is that investing in our students and our future?

[Mike Stefan @MDSTEFAN]

And @psuextension with the solid assist. Just another reason to fund @PennState and pass our bill! #weare @AdvocateState

[Governor Josh Shapiro @GovernorShapiro]

Pennsylvania will receive $1.16 billion in federal funding to connect communities to accessible, affordable broadband.

We’re going to put those dollars to good use, connecting people to high speed internet at affordable prices.
