Penn State specialist wins Extension award UNIVERSITY PARK - Dan E. Moore, associate professor of rural sociology at Penn State has been named recipient of the 1981 Cooperative Extension Service Award. The annual award is presented to a member of the Pennsylvania Extension staff for outstanding educational programming. Moore was honored during the recent Extension Conference held on the University Park Campus. According to Thomas B. King, Penn State associate dean for extension, the award winner was cited for planning and conducting ■ “Pennsylvania: The Citizens’ Viewpoint,” a survey of Com monwealth citizens which has made their views and concerns accessible to decision makers throughout the state. The survey, initiated in 1979, focused on attitudes concerning housing, welfare, energy, juvenile crime, garbage disposal, teenage drug and alcohol abuse, attitudes toward state and local govern ment, recreation, employment, and public transportation. To select the appropriate survey questions, Moore contacted over 100 individuals and groups, ranging from local mayors and civic organizations to state legislators and the Governor’s office. He also encouraged each agency and group to submit questions they saw as most im portant to their mission in the 1980 s. In early 1980, 20,400 Penn sylvanians received the questionnaire, a 1 in 1,000 sampling rate. Participants were randomly selected to include all age groups.
