[edit] Rationale behind branch campuses
I think this is an accurate statement, but I want to check it first:
The Pennsylvania State University Commonwealth Campus system was created by Penn State during the Great Depression of the 1930s in order to ensure that a (quality) Penn State education be avialable locally to residents of the Commonwealth. Rob 21:29, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Link to Commonwealth Campus articles
Penn State Live has a site that has reprints from Intercom, the Penn State's faculty/staff newspaper, about branch campuses. Sorry if this is a repeat for anyone. Rob 22:05, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] this group does still not exist with this name
delete if you want, but it doesn't make it true
- I think everybody would agree that they would like information about Penn State to be correct. So what is the new name of the Commonwealth Education System? What do you call a Penn State campus that is not University Park? Many sites in the psu.edu domain call them Commonwealth Campuses.
- If you know of the official name of "this group". please supply a reference. Rob 07:49, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Penn State Network
Commonwealth Campuses may now be known as the Penn State Network, although I'm not sure when that name came into being. I checked the latest Faculty Staff directory, and the entry for Commonwealth Campuses directs you to the map of the Penn State Network. I can't find any references about the network of campuses on the net though. Rob 13:30, 3 April 2006 (UTC)
