"Alumni are the University's most valuable resource," said Roger L. Williams '73, '75g, '88g, executive director of the Penn State Alumni Association. "The Alumni Fellow program gives us the opportunity to showcase the significant contributions Penn Staters make to our nation and the world. At the same time, we are bringing these alumni ever closer to our shared Alma Mater."
