No Frills campus

I'm going to post more thoughts on this sooner or later, but for now I just wanted to grab a couple of links to a subject that is getting interesting in the context of various conversations I'm having about the funding for higher education: no frills campuses. Pennsylvania has announced a proposal to create a no frills campus: here's the Philadelphia Inquirer account and a notice on it in the Chronicle of Higher Education. The Chronicle also pointed out that one campus of Southern New Hampshire University might be a model.
