According to John Lilley,
Behrend's provost and dean,
Fasenmyer presented the gift
because he thought it would be
"a good business decision" and
that "businesses have to give
back (to society)".
"These students (at
Behrend) learn more than
academic theory," Fasenmyer
said. "When they graduate they
move right into industry as
skilled technicians, design and
project engineers."
"They are scholars who
maintain an interest in research
and want to improve the
flexibility and efficiency of the
plastics industry as a whole for
an employer, It's an unbeatable
combination."
The Plastics Engineering
Technology (PET) program is
the only one of its kind in the
state and is nationally
renowned.
"Plastics Engineering
Technology has a 100 percent
placement rate, which is the
highest placement percentage
in the University," said Lilley.
“Richard Fasenmyer’s gift
of one million dollars is the
cornerstone upon which this
new complex will be built,"
said Lilley. "Many states in
general, and Pennsylvania in
particular, are devoting less and
less money to higher
education. Without concerned
friends like him, willing to
respond to proven need, both
students and industry would
suffer."
