About Edinboro University in Erie And, during the summer, the grounds are alive with the
sound of children's voices.
- Th e Porreca Center-------- The Kids Academy at Porreco is an exciting opportunity
for children in grades 1-6 to participate in a wide array of
unique learning experiences thanks to Edinboro University
in Erie.

Brief History
The rich history of the Porreco estate dates back to the
mid-nineteenth century, when a German immigrant, Henry
Knobloch, purchased the original 400 acres. The main
property stayed in the Knobloch family until 1931, when the
first of the Gebauer' s took title. Jesse Gebauer became the
owner in 1942 while married to Adrian Archbold, grandson of
John Archbold, the partner and Standard Oil fortune successor
to John D. Rockefeller.
Mrs. Archbold died in 1976, and much of the estate was
divided into smaller holdings and sold privately. The core
of the property, however, was retained and put on public
auction. In 1978, Louis J. Porreco purchased it. In 1986,
Mr. Porreca donated the estate to Edinboro University to enhance the quality and convenience of educational offerings
in the Erie area.
Today, the renovated estate is used by Edinboro University
to provide both credit and non-credit educational
opportunities for traditional and non-traditional students, and
for holding special events. Various organizations within the
community also use the facilities for educational and cultural
programming.

Community & Corporate Resource

The Center also houses a converted guest house
(The Garden House) which contains classrooms, faculty
offices, a library service area with reference materials and
direct computer access to Edinboro University's main
library catalogue, the largest educational resources center
in northwestern Pennsylvania.
Mary Porreca Hall, the original estate mansion and still
its centerpiece, has been maintained to preserve its 1800s
vintage farmhouse milieu. Among its 12 rooms is a large
living area perfect for executive seminars, retreats,
conferences, receptions and cultural events, and
professional and social gatherings. Mary Porreco Hall
also has a library, three small conference or break out rooms,
dining and lounge facilities, and a fully equipped kitchen.
Special-event catering services are also available.

Overview
The field of criminal justice encompasses all matters
relating to crime. It is concerned with law, criminology,
police, courts, corrections, crime control policy and
planning. Moreover, it is a rapidly changing field. Modern
criminal behavior such as computer theft and embezzlement, terrorism, racketeering and sophisticated political
corruption require new technologies and skills for crime
control. There is a need for broadly educated personnel
with a deep understanding of the criminal justice system
and its political, social and economic environments. There is
equally a need for modern police skills, from accounting to
computer skills and counseling.
A sound degree program in criminal justice must be
flexible to prepare undergraduates for a rapidly
changing - and exciting - set of occupations. To meet this
need, Edinboro University offers a comprehensive program
which provides an overview of the criminal justice system
and development of essential skills: the Associate of Arts in
Criminal Justice.

Career Opportunities
The two-year associate degree program is designed
primarily to provide persons currently employed in criminal justice agencies an opportunity to enrich their backgrounds in criminal justice studies and at the same time
earn a college degree in the field.
Edinboro' s criminal justice program seeks to provide
students with a broad understanding of the entire criminal
justice system and human behavior rather than a narrow
specialization. A wide range of employment opportunities
exists with the police, the courts, and correctional programs.
The background provided by this degree program may
also be valuable for those who decide to seek a four-year
bachelor's degree in criminal justice, social work, sociology
or political science.

Overview
The basic premise of this program is that there is a
common core of attitudes, skills and knowledge that
apply to a variety of settings in the human services.
Individuals equipped with these competencies can make
effective contributions to agencies involved in mental
health, education, welfare, corrections and other areas.

Career Opportunities
Many health and human services agencies are seeking
individuals who have less than a baccalaureate degree,
but are sophisticated enough to be effective workers.
This program is concerned with the preparation of
individuals as mental health workers, psychiatric aides,
social service workers, workers for developmentally
diabled, and workers with the elderly. The availability of
trained paraprofessionals in these areas could make such
services available to the public more efficiently and
effectively.
The goal of the program is to educate, in two years,
a generalist worker who could move into a wide range of
mental health and/ or human services fields.
Human services paraprofessionals held several thousand
government jobs during the 1990s. Government agencies
employ a significant portion of the paraprofessionals to deal
w ith such issues as poverty, crime, public assistance,
population policy, social rehabilitation, community
development, mental health, racial and ethnic studies, and
environmental impact studies.

III. FREE ELECTIVES

The Associate of Science in Business Administration
program prepares the student to find employment in
various positions in domestic or international businesses
including accounting, advertising, finance, financial
services, logistics, management, marketing and production.
Business positions are available for graduates in
commercial firms, not-for-profit organizations, government
agencies and international businesses. Graduates can also
choose to be self-employed and are prepared for further
study in business administration, accounting, finance,
financial services, economics or marketing.

Overview
The Associate of Arts in Liberal Studies is a flexible
two-year degree program designed to meet the needs of a
variety of students:
• students desiring a two-year degree that will enable
them to transfer to a four-year institution;
• unemployed workers wanting to develop marketable
job skills; or
• employed persons seeking retraining or upgrading of
knowledge.
Up to 15 hours of credit may be awarded for previously
completed courses at vocational or technical institutes, and
students may be eligible to have their tuition covered by the
national vocational training act.

Concert Band of Northwest Pennsylvania

Community Music School

The Concert Band of Northwest Pennsylvania is an all
volunteer musical organization of musicians ranging
in age from high school to 80. They come from all over
northwest Pennsylvania, southwest New York and northeast Ohio. Any players of woodwind, brass, or percussion
instruments are invited to join the Band. John Fleming is
the Director. The program is sponsored by the Office of
Extended Leaming of Edinboro University. All concerts
are free and open to the public. For more information,
please call 814-734-4389.

Founded as the Preparatory Division by the Music
Department at Edinboro University in the 1970s, the
Edinboro University Community Music School was reborn
in 2000 with a major expansion. Its mission is to provide
music lessons to students without regard to their ability
to pay. With this in mind, the Community Music School
expanded into Erie at the Boys and Girls Club of Erie, Inc.
and at Edinboro University in Erie - The Porreco Center.
Currently, we have approximately 200 students studying a
full range of musical instruction including wind and brass
instruments, Suzuki piano, Suzuki violin, piano, strings,
guitar, percussion, Kindermusik, and the Erie Children's
Choir.
The facilities at Edinboro University in Erie
- The Porreco Center make an ideal setting for the
Community Music School. Working closely with the
administrative staff at the Porreco Center, offerings
include Suzuki piano, violin, voice, piano, and flute
lessons. The Porreco Center houses a grand piano for
student use, pre- and post-lesson computers, electronic
pianos, and teaching studios. Future plans may include a
concert hall and dedicated teaching areas for chamber
music and lessons.
The Community Music School offers scholarships to
over 40% of its students. To fund these activities, a
generous grant from the Boys and Girls Club of Erie, Inc.
was received in year one. Since then, fundraising efforts
have included student fees, private donations, and grants.
Please contact the Community Music School to discuss
donor opportunities. The Community Music School can be
reached at (814) 732-1357 or via e-mail at
dburdick@edinboro.edu. The Community Music School
website can be found on the Music Department website at:

Music School includes Dr. Daniel Burdick, Executive
Director, and Professor LeAnne Wistrom, Administrative

Purple Martin Conservation Association
The Purple Martin Conservation Association is an
international, non-profit, tax-exempt organization
dedicated to the conservation of the Purple Martin
(Progne subis) species of bird through scientific research,
state-of-the-art wildlife management techniques, and public education. It is supported by membership contributions
and product sales. The PMCA is associated with Edinboro
University of Pennsylvania through its Office of Extended
Learning, which played a valuable role in the formation of
the PMCA and continues to provide assistance and
logistical support.
Purple Martins are condo-nesting members of the
swallow family that spend their winters in Brazil and
migrate back to North American breeding grounds in the _
spring, when the weather warms enough to provide flying
insects for their food. The eastern race of Purple Martins
is different from all other species of birds in that they no
longer nest in the wild. Today, east of the Rocky
Mountains, they are totally dependent on people to supply
them with houses and gourds for nesting. Unfortunately,
Purple Martins are not as common as they were a century
ago. The PMCA is working to reverse this trend.
Today, the PMCA conducts research at its colony site on
the eastern shore of Edinboro Lake, where as many as 150
pairs of martins nest each year. Over 6,000 members
receive its quarterly publication, The Purple Martin
Update. Additionally, the PMCA is in touch with over
100,000 Purple Martin enthusiasts throughout North America. By making accurate information on martins available
to would-be landlords, designing better martin housing
systems, and by conducting scientific research, the PMCA
is working to increase the Purple Martins' population
throughout its North American breeding range.
