Faculty Chair
UNIVERSITY PARK (Centre
Co.) A Penn State alumnus
who says America must protect its
world leadership in agricultural
productivity has committed
$730,000 to Penn State’s College
of Agricultural Sciences.
C. Lee Rumberger of Pitts
burgh, a former vice president
with HJ. Heinz Co., made the do
nation to endow a faculty chair
that will boost the college’s re
search programs. The chair will be
funded through a combination of
lifetime gifts and an estate note. It
will build on a professorship that
Rumberger endowed with a
$250,000 donation in 1987.
“Lee Rumbcrger has long re
cognized that our nation’s leader
ship in agriculture has rested on a
strong commitment to research,”
said Lamartine F. Hood, dean of
the College of Agricultural Sci
ences. “Research is the key to en
suring a high quality, safe and nu
tritious food supply.”
Rumberger, who once served as
vice president for research at
Heinz, said, “I know from person
al experience how important re
search is to the entire agricultural
industry. We can’t afford to be
complacent. We must always be
looking for better products and
more efficient ways of doing
things. My hope is that the Rum
berger chair will play an important
role in that area.”
