Pennsylvania budget plan calls for 15.7% boost for financially struggling university system - Jeremy Bauer-Wolf, Higher Ed Dive

Tom Wolf unveiled a budget plan Tuesday that would provide the financially anemic Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education $75 million more in general funding for the 2022-23 fiscal year.

It follows a major restructuring of the system, which has started merging six of its institutions into two.
