Donald Long Hall was built in 1989 and is part of the community of Long, Schaefer, and Temp.
About the man: Mr. Donald J. Long, Sr. has touched the lives of students at all levels and in all corners of
the community through his leadership and philanthropy. Mr. Long was born in Brillion, Wisconsin, the oldest
of nine children of James Long, a railroad switchman, and Bernadette Rolf Long, a homemaker and seamstress.
At mid-point in a career in sales, Don Long took a risk. He sold his house and invested in a company of his own.
Today, Imperial, Inc., employs more than 100 people at its corporate headquarters in Green Bay and distribution
centers in Rhode Island, Nevada and Texas. As his company has flourished, Don Long has shared his time, energy,
and business knowledge with the institutions and organizations that enrich a community--its university, schools,
churches, cultural organizations and human services agencies. Mr. Long and James A. Temp served as general chairmen
of the University's first capital fund drive, raising more than $2.5 million for scholarships, professorships and
student housing. He is a past vice president of the UWGB Founders Association and a current member of the University
Village Housing Inc. board.
