​Patton Township will soon have a new manager, but it’s a familiar face.

​Amy Farkas, currently Harris Township manager, is making the move to Patton Township.

“I reached a point in Harris Township where I feel like I’ve accomplished so many wonderful things, but I’m ready for some new challenges,” Farkas explained. “Patton appealed to me because it’s a larger community and it will give me the room to spread my wings a little bit. Patton is also well run and has a great board and staff.”

STATE COLLEGE — A Penn State administrator directed university leaders representing nearly all departments to submit the number of employees they plan to lay off by the end of June, according to internal communications obtained by Spotlight PA.

Justin Schwartz, interim executive vice president and provost, directed chancellors, deans and other university leaders on the Academic Leadership Council to provide the administration with “your best estimate of the total number of positions from your unit that you predict are necessary to eliminate during this fiscal year” by March 31, according to the messages.
​
The university declined to provide an approximate timeline for when employees will know if their job is being cut.
