A state lawmaker is proposing legislation aimed at reforming Penn State University's Board of Trustees.

The suggested reforms from Rep. Scott Conklin include reducing the size of the board by 10 to 22 members and fully extending the state Right-to-Know law to the university.

Conklin represents Centre County, home of Penn State's main campus. The board has been under scrutiny for more than a year for its handling of the child molestation scandal involving former assistant coach Jerry Sandusky.

Conklin said his proposals are aimed at increasing accountability and transparency. The proposals are based on recommendations issued in November by state Auditor General Jack Wagner.

A university spokesman noted that Penn State is in the midst of implementing internal reforms. He said trustees will review the proposals or reports from Conklin, Wagner and others.
