About Tina Hay

Tina Hay is editor of The Penn Stater, the bimonthly magazine for the 161,000 members of the Penn State Alumni Association. The Penn Stater won the 2007 Robert Sibley Magazine of the Year Award from Newsweek and the Council for Advancement and Support of Education, and has garnered more than 180 other national awards in the past five years. Tina is a little embarrassed to admit that The Penn Stater doesn’t yet have a Web site, but points out that it does have a pretty cool blog: http://pennstatermag.com. 

Tina is a frequent presenter at the CASE (Council for Advancement and Support of Education) Editors Forum and has twice co-chaired the conference. She also teaches in the magazine track at the CASE Summer Institute in Marketing and Communications; has spoken at magazine-editing conferences in Michigan, Ohio, and Florida; and has provided private consultation and critiques to a number of alumni magazines. 

Tina has worked at Penn State for more than 26 years: She’s been editor of The Penn Stater since 1996, and before that, she spent 13 years as external relations coordinator for Penn State’s College of Health and Human Development. Earlier in her career she was news and sports director for a pair of radio stations in State College, Pa., and a really long time ago, she was the all-night DJ on WQWK, an FM rock station in State College. For 25 years she also has been the public address announcer for Lady Lion basketball, first in Rec Hall and now in the Bryce Jordan Center. In her spare time she sings alto in a choral society, dabbles in photography with her beloved Nikon D40 (check out some of her photos at http://www.flickr.com/photos/11850196@N03/sets/ and www.personal.psu.edu/tmh1), and spends way too much time on Facebook.
