Temple does have the Ambler campus but it's not really a big deal. I'm kind of shocked they still use it.

It doesn't fund them directly. Penn State, along with Temple, Pitt, and Lincoln, gets its annual handouts in exchange for tuition discounts and trustee appointments. The branches have different histories - most were 2 year feeder campuses to close gaps in geographical access and with specific purposes. For example, Mont Alto was the forestry campus and Behrend was started by the Hammermill paper heirs to start paper engineering and business programs. There's no actual reason for the purpose or location of the Pitt branch campuses. Temple and Lincoln don't have branch campuses in the same sense.
Penn State is pretty complex. They are the state's land grant school but also the state's A&T school (agriculture and polytechnic). Penn State gets additional money to do State work related to agriculture and farm science including an order to have a agriculture consultation presence in every county called Penn State Extension. Penn State bought previously existing law and medical schools to add to their portfolio. They were also a pioneer in an online division but have never really succeeded the way others have.

To subsidize R1 education. PA has funded Penn State since it began, but Pitt has only received funding since the mid 60s. They were a big private university on the verge of bankruptcy and it was the trend to have states adopt struggling privates. Ohio added Toledo, Cincinnati, Akron, and Youngstown to supplement Ohio, Ohio State, Bowling Green, Kent, and Miami.
But it did notg always fund the 24 branch campuses. 24

The Commonwealth provides funding yet they do not have disclose records to the state. Absolutely insane and nonsensical.

It is hard to find any updated amounts for each schools endowment.
Wikipedia has IUP at 60 million in endowment.
On the IUP webpage for the Foundation..it states it that it manages 50 million in endowed funds and $250 million in real estate. But when is this info from, it does not say and is the $250 just something on paper?

You have to admit this is at least some positive momentum for PASSHE. It is a good, yet imperfect system that needs a lift and a few tweaks. Just a shame they waited so long.
