From staff reports
LOCK HAVEN Faculty at Lock Haven University plan to host a virtual town hall on March 30 to discuss the controversial integration of Lock Haven, Mansfield and Bloomsburg universities.
With more questions than answers about the proposed merger, LHU members of the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculties (LHU-APSCUF) are inviting people to the meeting via ZOOM.
The “open town hall meeting” is set for 7 to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 30. Information on how to participate is listed at right; registration is required.
By means of the Act 50 legislation passed earlier in 2020, the state system and the chancellor’s office propose to consolidate Lock Haven University with Mansfield and Bloomsburg universities. The chancellor and the management of the three universities have presented this consolidation as an upbeat outcome for students, faculty, staff, and the larger communities affected by the consolidation.
