Penn State d HARRISBURG, Pa. - Four Pennsylvania universities said Wednesday they will follow through with tuition increases despite calls from House Republicans to roll back the price hikes.The lawmakers, including Sen.

Doug Mastriano, R-Franklin, the GOP nominee for governor, argue Penn State, University of Pittsburgh, Lincoln and Temple are receiving federal funds and do not need to increase tuition.The universities did not receive a bump in funding in this year’s state budget.
