FEBRUARY 2016
Virginia Wesleyan College broke ground on the Greer Environmental Sciences Center on January 13. VWC Board Chair Gary D. Bonnewell (center) and I were honored to welcome Billy and Fann Greer back to campus for this very special event. This impressive facility will provide state-of-the-art instructional and laboratory opportunities for our students and will help to expand our regional collaborations with organizations such as the Virginia Aquarium and Marine Science Center, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science.
