Penn State #1 (Employer in Centre County)
Penn State is Centre County’s biggest employer, beating out the second-biggest employer (the State College Area School District) by 21,704 people. Has there been a year in the past century that Penn State wasn’t the biggest employer? Probably not.
Some other interesting rankings were the County Government at #6, Wal-Mart at #7, and AccuWeather at #16.

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.
