BEHREND CELEBRATES $51.7 MILLION
CAMPAIGN SUCCESS
Volunteers and donors gathered at the Glenhill Appreciation Dinner on Thurs
day, September 25, to celebrate the success of Penn State Behrend's capital campaign, a
part of Penn State's Grand Destiny Campaign. Over the past seven years, campaign gifts
to the Erie college totaled a record $51.7 million, far exceeding the original $2l million
goal.
"The Grand Destiny Campaign has had a great impact at the Behrend College,"
said Campus Executive Officer and Dean Dr. Jack Burke. "When the campaign began we
had fifty-eight endowed funds, and today we have 113. Our endowment has grown from
$5.3 million to $34 million, and this year the college awarded, for the first time, more than
a half-million dollars in endowed scholarships."
"The Glenhill Appreciation Dinner is a great opportunity for us to thank the
people who were instrumental in achieving this extraordinary campaign success," Burke
said. "We could not have reached and exceeded our goal without the fine work of our
campaign chair, Ted Junker, and our vice chairs, Hoop Roche and Robert Metzgar. The
Campaign Committee took our needs to the community, and the community responded
generously."
At the Glenhill Appreciation Dinner committee members Joe Benacci, Kurt
Buseck, Jack Fatica, and Gary Raimy were recognized for their efforts. Burke also recog
nized posthumously the efforts of George Clark and Louis Pollock, who served on the
committee prior to their deaths. Rod Kirsch, Penn State's vice president for Development
and Alumni Relations, presented a Laurel Circle crystal to Kay Fasenmyer in recognition
of the campaign commitments of her son, the late Richard J. Fasenmyer.
Gifts to the University-wide campaign totaled $1.3 billion, making it the largest
fund-raising campaign in the history of Penn State. All funds raised at Penn State Behrend
remained at the Erie campus to create new scholarships, new programs, and new facili
ties.
