GANNON PRESIDENT, DR. JOSEPH P. SCOT- TINO RETIRES Dr. Joseph P. Scottino, Gannon University's third president, retired on June 30, 1987 after serving as president for ten years. He graduated from Gannon College in 1950, with a degree in political science and history, continuing his education at Fordham University, where he earned a M.A. and Ph.D. in political philosophy. In 1956, Dr. Scottino returned to Gannon as a member of the political science faculty. He served as director of Evening and Summer Sessions from 1 962- 64, as dean of Graduate School from 1964-72, and as vice president for Academic Affairs and Provost from 1972-77. He was elected by the Board of Trustees to become Gannon's third president in 1977. Throughout his tenure at Gannon, Dr. Scottino has participated in nearly every major University devel- opment, including the Advanced Technology and Pro- ductivity Center, the Alumni College, Channel 66, Evening and Summer Programs, the Gannon Hahne- mann Family Medicine Program, the Graduate Pro- gram, the Liberal Studies Program, the Small Busi- ness Development Center, and the William Penn Society. He spearheaded the attainment of university status in 1979. Under the leadership of Dr. Scottino, Gannon has grown in both academic programs and facilities. The late Msgr. Louis Lorei, a long-time associate of Dr. Scottin's at Gannon, said of him: He is one of the best things that could ever have happened to Gannon. He has maintained the Catholic and Christian integrity of Gannon most consistently at a time when American sister colleges are secularizing. After his retirement, Dr. Scottino spent much of a year in Rome, touring and working on journalistic correspondence. Upon his return to Erie, he plans to return to Gannon to teach as a member of the Political Science department.
