| NOTE FROM THE CHAIR |
 The most exciting and encouraging news we have to report in this issue? Penn State students are more engaged in fundraising for the University than ever before, thanks to not only Thon and the Senior Class Gift but also the new Student Philanthropy Council.
As the Investing in People era comes to a close and the University prepares for our next fundraising campaign, I hope you’ll find our students’ enthusiasm as inspiring as I do, and I hope you’ll join the newest generation of Penn Staters in supporting this remarkable institution.
For the glory, 
Art Nagle
Chair, National Council for Penn State Philanthropy

| QUICK NEWS |
 Thon is the largest student- run philanthropy in the
world. Since 1973, Penn State students have raised more than $41 million to support families battling pediatric cancer, invest in research, and improve facilities at Penn State Children’s Hospital.
 The Class of 2007 chose Celebration Garden at Rec
Hall as their senior class gift to the
University. Two members of this year’s Senior Class Gift Committee are pictured here with President Graham Spanier.
 The Student Philanthropy Council works hard to raise student awareness
of the importance of private
giving at Penn State. This year they
launched Philanthropy Phridays, a
monthly event at the HUB designed
to showcase ways the University
benefi ts from private support.
