I accompanied our Director of Academic Affairs to Duy Tan University in Vietnam, a land in which we were greeted with graciousness and a voracious intellectual appetite for the future. In Vietnam, we signed an international train-the-trainer agreement, in which Greater Allegheny faculty take the lead in delivering business and accounting course content and interactive American teaching methodologies. This partnership not only solidifies a first-of-its-kind partnership to share faculty and staff resources on an international scale, but also manifest this notion of education as transformation.
The For the Future: The campaign for Penn State Students financial campaign is in full-swing. So far, Greater Allegheny has raised nearly $2.3 million toward our campus' $5 million portion of the overall goal. I am confidence that it is within our reach with the help of our dedicated alumni as well as our nurtured and new relationships with corporations and foundations. Our All That's Jazz fundraiser for student scholarships is in its seventh year and raised more than $110,000. Since 2004, the event has raised more than $374,000 for the Penn State Greater Allegheny Scholarship Fund.
It is our Greater Allegheny vision to always care for and advance the success of our students and communities. We invite you to visit us and learn about the opportunities that abound at Penn State Greater Allegheny. Watch for our open house dates or call our Admissions Office at 412-675-9010 for more information. You can also reach me directly at cep6@psu.edu.
Sincerely,
Curtiss E. Porter, Ph.D.
