It sure is.  I always read that the state funding that is provided to PSU as a % of its budget is super low compared to other state flagships nationally.

"Penn State currently receives $242.1 million from the state to fund its education expenses. Divided evenly among 43,000 Pennsylvania undergraduates, that works out to about $5,600 in support per student, a funding level that ranks far below the national average and that lags behind the state’s other public institutions by between $2,600 and $3,400 per student. Based on each institution’s most recent state funding and enrollment data, Temple University receives $8,275 per Pennsylvania resident undergraduate student, the Pennsylvania State System of Higher Education receives funding of $8,378 per in-state undergraduate, and the University of Pittsburgh receives $9,049 per in-state undergraduate student."[/quote]
