Good morning, Erie.

Mercyhurst University celebrated 953 students who earned a spot on the Dean’s List for Spring 2026.

University President Kathleen Getz (who commended their dedication) said the honor reflects a strong academic environment.

Erie County health inspectors reported five critical restaurant violations between June 9 and 17+ the inspections cited missing food safety certification, dated milk and unsanitized dishware at restaurants in Millcreek Township, Corry and North East Boro; inspections occur annually.

Local realtors advised home sellers to boost appeal with simple steps like painting and de-cluttering.

They noted that midweek open houses held on June 17 helped attract buyers amid low inventory and high mortgage rates.
