Letter: Incumbents Merit Reelection to Penn State Board of Trustees

The election of Penn State trustees by the alumni now approaches the final week of voting. I strongly support the incumbents:  Bill Oldsey, Barbara Doran and Ted Brown. 

These three individuals have applied their professional credentials to matters of crucial importance for the success of our university, including affordability and access, risk management and crisis preparedness, Greek life, the health of our Commonwealth Campuses, and sound fiscal stewardship. All three have worked effectively with colleagues on the board to promote Penn State’s interests. 

It is important to support these incumbents because Penn State is a large, complex institution and board service has a steep learning curve. Let’s keep this expertise on the board. Experience matters! Please vote, and encourage others to vote. If you need to request a ballot, call VoteNet at 866-307-0041
