To Educate or Not: Cuts at Our State’s Universities (Matt Stroud) from Pittsburgh Quarterly
"Nordenberg questions the choices upon which Corbett’s budget proposal was built. “These are choices that will make it far harder for the young people of Pennsylvania to use the power of education to build better lives; choices that will put a real financial squeeze on Pennsylvania families, often still reeling from the effects of the Great Recession; choices that will impede this region’s economic recovery; and choices that make it less likely that Pennsylvania as a state will compete and thrive in the 21st century.”"
An interesting look at Pitt's relationship with state funding since the 1960s.
