Glenhill Society Gala More than 120 benefactors and friends
of Penn State Behrend attended the
2005 induction ceremony for the
Glenhill Society in the Reed Union
Building’s McGarvey Commons. The Glenhill Society was
created to recognize individuals
whose personal cumulative gifts
reach the $50,000 to $99,999 level. Joining Jack Burke as hosts for the event were Council of Fellows Chair Kurt Buseck and immediate past Chair Hoop Roche. A highlight of the evening was Staci Banaszak's discussion on how philanthropy has helped her. Following her remarks, she was awarded the Lawrence and Elizabeth Held Scholarship for the next academic year.

The program included a video
featuring the history of Mary Behrend’s
gift of her 400-acre Glenhill Farm to
Penn State. The video discussed the
impact of the philanthropic gifts from
these donors, a group that includes
many who support Trustee Matching
Scholarships.
