Penn College president presents budget request to state Senate

Pennsylvania College of Technology President Davie Jane Gilmour presented to the Pennsylvania Senate Appropriations Committee on Tuesday afternoon in support of the college’s 2019-20 state budget appropriation request.

This is the second year that Penn College was afforded the opportunity to present to the committee separately. Previously, the college’s appropriation request was communicated by The Pennsylvania State University when it presented as part of the hearing for state-related universities.

Tuesday’s hearing was broadcast live on the Pennsylvania Cable Network; video of the president's testimony and follow-up questioning was available on the PCN website through the "Pennsylvania Budget 2019-2020" page.

Also presenting to the Senate Appropriations Committee on Tuesday were the state-related universities (Penn State, Pitt, Temple and Lincoln), and Thaddeus Stevens College of Technology.
