LOCK HAVEN The merger of Lock Haven University with Mansfield and Bloomsburg universities has been a controversial issue for the past few weeks, with local rallies, town halls and other events expressing opposition to the PAASHE proposal.
On Thursday, the Clinton County commissioners took a stand on the issue. Commissioner Angela Harding read the following statement:
“The Clinton County Board of Commissioners are concerned about the adverse effects that the proposed merger of Lock Haven University will have on our county.
“We understand that changes need to occur within the PASSHE system for sustainability and longevity.
