by Joe Savrock (May 2009)

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. – The College of Education held its annual Staff Appreciation Luncheon May 15 at the Penn Stater Conference Center.

Dean David Monk recognized a large number of staff members for achieving milestone anniversaries, presenting them with special plaques. At the top of the roll was Sharon Patrick, who reached her 35-year mark this year, and Mary Frank with 30 years.

The staff enjoyed a booming musical performance by Brian Henry and Matt Holehan, both seniors from the College of Arts and Architecture who were set to graduate the following day. Henry sang a baratone rendition of four medleys while Holehan provided a piano accompaniment.
