Penn State's Expansion Worries Competitors.
Healy, Patrick
Chronicle of Higher Education, v43 n29 pA44 Mar 28 1997
Pennsylvania State University will turn 14 of its two-year campuses into four-year colleges, changing the face of higher education in the state and raising concerns for competing institutions. Three campuses will retain two-year status. The change is due to overcrowding at the University Park flagship campus, and because too few two-year campus students attained Pennsylvania State University bachelor's degrees. (MSE)
