Daniel Greenstein is excited, grinning, talking a mile a minute. As chancellor of the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education, he’s days away from unveiling the details of a plan to consolidate six of the system’s 14 public universities into two new, combined institutions. Over the past nine months, the system has held hundreds of meetings to gauge the possibilities for how the new entities might function and hash out the details. The resulting document will be presented to the system’s Board of Governors for initial approval on April 28.
