Penn State threatens to lay off around 1,100 employees - Charles Thompson, Penn Live

Penn State President Eric Barron told university trustees Friday that 1,100 agricultural extension workers statewide could face layoffs this spring if the university does not receive its 2015-16 state subsidy. Barron said the layoff notices, which would affect staff at ag extension offices in every Pennsylvania county, could go out before May 1 without a break in the state budget impasse. http://www.pennlive.com/news/2016/02/penn_state_president_eric_barr.html
