FILE - The Pennsylvania Capitol is seen, Dec. 16, 2021, in Harrisburg, Pa. Four of Pennsylvania’s top universities are getting closer to receiving their overdue state subsidies after the state House of Representatives passed their appropriation on Tuesday, Oct. 31, 2023, with the caveat the schools must freeze tuition next year.
Funding for Penn State, Temple and Lincoln universities and the University of Pittsburgh has been snarled in the Legislature for months over a partisan dispute involving fetal tissue research and public disclosure of school records. A proposal to require the universities to freeze tuition for the 2024-25 academic year was a late addition to the bill, particularly lauded by Republicans.
“We’re able to deliver for the universities, but we’re able to deliver for the students,” said Majority Leader Rep. Matt Bradford, of Montgomery County.
