There are some state school systems where the degree awarded is a bit ambiguous.  In the case of Penn State, they explicitly state that all campuses are part of "one university" - even though my understanding is that each campus is separately accredited and ranked as separate entities.  They also get the same looking diploma.  That's why when you get a Penn State World Campus degree, it is not clear whether you are getting it from University Park or some other campus.  According to Penn State itself, a Penn State degree is the same regardless of the campus that awards it.  Whether people outside Penn State believe that or not I guess is the question.
