Panel Looks At Cost Of College In Pennsylvania

06.04.12 | Sarah Harnisch

A panel is holding hearings across the state this month on the high cost of college in Pennsylvania. Today, a community college student, the provost at a Catholic university and the chairman of a veterans program will testify in Philadelphia. Wilkes-Barre gets its turn to speak June 28th, before the commission gives its report to Governor Corbett on November 5th. 816-thousand Pennsylvanians attend college in their home state, and just 22-percent think it's affordable.
