Bill Scranton

He was a Republican governor of Pennsylvania who created the state community college system, the Higher Education Assistance Act, and the state Board of Education.  He was a Republican governor who raised taxes, who decreased unemployment, and who, when he was in Congress, supported civil rights, foreign aid, and the Peace Corps.

Scranton served as governor of Pennsylvania for one term (all that was allowed at that time) from 1962 to 1966.  He died last week at age 96.  I wish they still made Republicans like that.
