Property Taxes, School Funding and College Cooperation

This week's Pennsylvania Newsmakers features a series of education panels. In the first panel, Tim Allwein, Asst. Ex. Director, PSBA, and Stinson Stroup, Ex. Dir. PASA, explain the big decisions school boards have to make to opt into property tax relief, when gaming revenues are forthcoming. Joining Terry Madonna on the second part of the program, Shippensburg President Anthony Ceddia, Pete Garland, Vice Chancellor of Academic Affairs in the State System, and John Ford, VP. for Outreach and Special Projects, HBG Area Community College, discuss the collaborative efforts of the public universities and the community colleges in dual admission and academic passports, with special emphasis on the relationship between Shippensburg and Harrisburg Area Community College, and how they can have wider application.
