Gifted Peace Corps Teachers to Inspire Budding Scientists

From stone mason to teacher, Royce Dingley found in Berry a strong foundation for a future in science. With the world’s largest campus as a science classroom, Royce and close friend Patrick Felch were able to gain valuable experience working with skilled and caring faculty on programs such as the restoration of the American Chestnut and as members of the prescribed burn team for our Longleaf Pine Project. Now Royce and Patrick are off to teach science to students in Nicaragua and Namibia with the hardworking attitudes they cultivated at Berry!
