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. However, those changes should not come at the cost of employees who live and work in our community. These changes should neither be made in haste, nor without careful consideration of the economic impact on Clinton County.

LOCK HAVEN “It’s like we don’t exist on the state’s map,” Clinton County Commissioner Miles Kessinger remarked during discussion about the state of Clinton County when it comes to receiving the COVID vaccine.
The comment came at Thursday night’s commissioners’ meeting after Clinton County Director of Emergency Services Andrew Kremser reported that 1,600 people in Clinton County have received the first dose of vaccine and 248 county residents have gotten their second shot.
Kessinger said that 180,000 doses of the vaccine were put out in the state this week, but very few came to this area.
