Penn State paid five private law firms more than $4 million in fiscal year 2022, despite having its own Office of General Counsel, Spotlight PA's Wyatt Massey reports.
The university retains private lawyers in addition to having its own 26-member Office of General Counsel tasked with providing “legal advice and representation to the Board of Trustees, the President and other administrators in their capacity as agents conducting University business,” according to the office’s website. |
