BUSINESS NEWS
- ➤ The Cleveland-Cliffs steel plant in Steelton closed on June 30th after more than 160 years of service, and most workers ended regular shifts on June 27th.

EDUCATION NEWS
- ➤ Widener University's Commonwealth Law School and the University of Scranton signed a 3+3 dual admissions agreement that lets eligible Scranton students earn both a bachelor’s and a law degree in six years. The program requires a minimum 3.0 GPA and a total of at least 90 credits—details that mirror similar agreements with Alvernia, Wilkes, and Lycoming. PennLive
GOVERNMENT NEWS
- ➤ Lawmakers had until Monday, June 30 to pass Gov. Josh Shapiro's $51.5 billion spending plan, but there was little optimism for timely approval.
