LEGACY OF LEADERS - 2ND
“Legacy of Leaders” chronicles the 100-year history of
Pennsylvania College of Technology and its forerunners, as
reflected through its leaders -- from George H. Parkes, who
transformed a small industrial shop into a postwar model of adult education at Williamsport Technical Institute, to current President Davie Jane Gilmour. Their recollections, as well as those of
Kenneth E. Carl, C. Herschel Jones, William H. Feddersen, David M. Heiney and Robert L. Breuder, also detail the creation of
Williamsport Area Community College and the transformative birth of Penn College as an internationally respected affiliate of The Pennsylvania State University.Each leader’s insight – flavored with historical photos and fascinating archival material – adds perspective to a story that reminds the reader that every
generation faces challenges and celebrates accomplishments. Net proceeds from the sale of the books go toward annual student awards from the Penn College Endowed Alumni Scholarship fund.
