EBENSBURG, Aug. 1 – Two floors that include digitally equipped classrooms will be added to Saint Francis University’s Sullivan Hall with help from a $500,000 state grant announced today by state Rep. Frank Burns.
The renovation and expansion of the 55-year-old building will boost the university’s health service program, which will also benefit from seminar rooms for small-scale, interactive work, Burns said.
“These are the types of investments our state can – and should – make,” said Burns, D-Cambria. “As a result of this funding, students in Saint Francis University’s health sciences program will have the most up-to-date technology and resources available, which helps prepare them for successful careers in health care.”
The grant was awarded from the Redevelopment Assistance Capital Program, which is administered by the Office of the Budget for the acquisition and construction of regional economic, cultural, civic, recreational, and historical improvement projects. Funded projects under the program have a regional or multi-jurisdictional impact; they also generate substantial increases or maintain current levels of employment, tax revenues, or other measures of economic activity.
