Over 30 years since graduating from Penn State, Joe Henry (’76 HD) enjoys reconnecting with the University through the Great Valley campus.

So when Great Valley was looking for donors to support its campus art gallery, he felt compelled to act.

“The experiences I had during my four years at Penn State, the education I got, really changed my life and led to my having a successful career. Naturally, I think we must thank those who do something good for us. It’s a courtesy and just makes sense.”

And thank Penn State he did. This past January, Henry and his wife, Marilyn, generously donated $50,000 to help expand Great Valley’s gallery facilities and programs.
