Zurn Tradition Continues
ERlE—Like father, like daughter,
Arloween Zurn Todd this year
begins a new era of Zurn family
leadership at Penn State Erie, The
Behrend College, by establishing
a $50,000 endowed scholarship to
benefit outstanding students.
Todd's father, industrialist John
A. Zurn, was part of a group of
prominent local citizens who in
1948 asked Maly Behrend, widow
of Hammermill Paper Co.
founder Ernst Behrend, to donate
the family's 400-acre Glenhill
Farm to Penn State so that a
public, coeducational, non
sectarian university could be
brought to Erie. The family's
legacy is also evident in the
College's Zurn Building used by
the School of Engineering and
Engineering Technology.

demonstrates that Behrend is a
creation of private philanthropy,
and its success continues in part
because of private philanthropic
support such as this scholarship
endowment."
"The students who go to
Behrend are outstanding," Todd
says of the recipients of her
generosity. "They want to get
ahead, but sometimes they need a
little help. That's why this is the
right thing to do."

"The purpose of the
Communication Club is to
inform the Behrend community
about their options as a
communication major, minor, or
in the field in general," explained
the club's president. "Our
members have searched to find
representatives to speak about
careers we have not represented
before. As their work persisted
the members developed a list of
credible representatives from the
Erie community eager to share
their experiences."
