Late LCCC professor, one of school’s first, leaves $1 million gift to students
Updated Dec 29, 2020;
A late Lehigh Carbon Community College professor and pioneer in the school’s technology department has left a $1 million gift behind to provide scholarships for students studying technology.
Clifford F. Miller of South Whitehall Township was one of the initial professors hired to teach mechanical technology at the North Whitehall college in 1968. He retired in May 1987 and was named professor emeritus in 1999 before dying in April 2020 at age 94.
In recognition of his $1 million donation in scholarship funding, the college plans to rename the Student Services Center at the Schnecksville campus as the “Clifford Miller Student Services Center” sometime in 2021.
