(Harrisburg) -- The state auditor general says he's committed to making sure no taxpayer funds are misused at Penn State in the wake of the school's child sex abuse scandal. Jack Wagner says it's important to monitor the hundreds of millions of dollars the school receives from taxpayers each year. "Penn State University receives taxpayer dollars. Last year, I believe the number was $279 million, down from the previous year of about $350 million," he says. "We're very concerned about how those dollars are utilized." Wagner says the state's Right-to-Know law should also fully apply to the school, which is a state-related university. Currently, the law only applies on a limited basis to Penn State and the three other state-related schools, Lincoln, Temple, and the University of Pittsburgh. A Penn State spokeswoman says the school only uses state funding to support its students.
