Local officials and Penn State students and alumni are breathing a sigh of relief over the decision by the university’s board of trustees to keep the Greater Allegheny Campus open.

The #RustBelt - First Impressions

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2qZDkXNgbwQ&list=WL

Just south of #Pittsburgh, PA is a region known as the #MonValley in the heart of #America's Rust Belt. It was once the epicenter of industry that built the country, a place where people from around the world came to find their opportunities. #Steel and #coal haven't entirely gone away, but the once-prospering towns of the Mon Valley have changed dramatically.

We're back, live, at the 64th #McKeesport
International Village. Kristen, Adam and Vickie are hard at work doing interviews, and we'll be bringing as much of the entertainment as we can.
