The Long Awards
In 1989, Ted J. Long of Altoona donated significantly to Penn State Altoona, making it possible to establish five annual awards for excellence for five members of the campus community. All full-time members of the faculty, the administration, staff assistants, and technical service staff are eligible to receive these awards, and any member of the campus community may nominate candidates.
The Ted J. Long Employee Excellence Award was created to recognize one full-time exempt staff member, one full-time non-exempt staff member, and one full-time technical service member who, by their job performance, exhibit outstanding professionalism, dedication, and enthusiasm in support of the Penn State Altoona.
