Penn Says It’s Not Penn State… Rly!
UnderTheButton, a blog focused on Penn, picked up this helpful entry on that university’s FAQ.
- Is Penn a state university? Where is Penn located?
- No. The University of Pennsylvania is a private institution with no connection to Pennsylvania State University.
I’m glad Penn addressed that issue directly, I’d been worrying about it as of late, but there’s still one thing I’m wondering about. A professor told me today that Penn actually gets more government money than Penn State. Can anyone prove or disprove that statement?

Penn State and the Process of Life
To paraphrase Mark Twain: The reports of higher education’s death have been an exaggeration. American universities produce more research and relevant knowledge for the world at large than any other institutions I know of. Tuition may be too damn high, but over the long-run, undergraduate degrees are definitely worth the cost. But Penn State could be so much more. It used to be, I think.
