    A MESSAGE FROM THE CHANCELLOR Photo by Kopicki Photography Dr. Susan Phillips Speece Saying Good-bye and Thank You en-and-a-half years … my gosh, where did they go? I vividly recall a grueling drive across the country, pulling up to my new home, and crashing on an inflatable mattress with a hole in it. It did not matter that the mattress T deflated during the night, I slept the sleep of one contentedly at home. For the past ten-and-a-half years, you have made Berks County my home. You have welcomed me, supported me, and even challenged me–all in the name of “Good Old State.” Over my tenure, we have been able to create a team of extremely competent professionals. You know the saying, “You are only as strong as the weakest link.” Well there are no weak links in the team here at Penn State Berks–just honed professionals who are also wonderful human beings. Together as a team we have been able to bring NCAA athletics to the college and community. We have doubled our baccalaureate offerings, and increased the number of faculty and the student enrollment by about 40 percent. The quality of our faculty’s research has reached new levels of excellence. With world-class leaders and a community- minded agenda, the faculty and staff at Penn State Berks have become invaluable assets to the greater community. Finally, after a nine-year effort, we are also seeing the completion of a classroom and laboratory building that will house the Business, Engineering, and Information Sciences and Technology division.
