Public college in Pennsylvania, USA
According to Wikipedia, The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford is a state-related college in Bradford, Pennsylvania. It is a baccalaureate degree-granting, regional campus of the University of Pittsburgh. History Founding The University of Pittsburgh at Bradford was founded in 1963 in response to a shortage of higher education institutions in the northcentral/northwestern region of Pennsylvania. While Pennsylvania State University had previously offered courses in Bradford in 1933 and 1948, these arrangements lasted only a year and, at the time of Pitt-Bradford’s establishment, there were no opportunities for tertiary learning in the surrounding six-county area. To address this, local leaders reached out to University of Pittsburgh chancellor Edward Litchfield advocating for a permanent presence in the region. During the early correspondence, Litchfield was evaluating the feasibility of several sites in Western Pennsylvania with the goal of increasing the university’s footprint. Pitt had previous success establishing extension centers and junior colleges, particularly the Johnstown Junior College in Cambria County in 1927, a model which served as the inspiration for the Penn State commonwealth campuses, and which the Litchfield administration now planned to incorporate into Pitt’s expansion.
