While at ISU, he served as the first Secretary-Treasurer of the University Foundation and helped to organize the University Council, serving as its President for two years. Professor Glasener’s commitment to ISU and to economics education continued for almost three decades following retirement until his death in Bloomington in 1987 at the age of 96.
