Indiana University of Pennsylvania has named its recording studio after Pittsburgh-based rock band The Clarks, which has university alumni as its members.

The move was approved last week by the university's Council of Trustees.

The Clarks are best known for songs such as 'Hey You,' 'Penny on the Floor' and 'Born Too Late.'

Members Scott Blasey, Robert James Hertweck, Greg Joseph and David Minarik graduated from IUP in the 1980s, the university said. They have performed several benefit concerts for IUP in recent years and in 2004 were given the university's Distinguished Alumni Award.

Equipment purchased for The Clarks Recording studio will be installed during the spring semester, the university said.
