Beschreibung:
William E. Dufford, a South Carolina native, served as a school principal in Georgetown, Beaufort, and Sumter and later as the superintendent of schools in York. He also served as an educational consultant for the Boston school system and as the director of field services for the University of South Carolina Center for Integrated Education. Dufford has been recognized with the South Carolina Governor's Award in the Humanities and the South Carolina Order of the Palmetto, the state's highest civilian honor. Now retired, he remains actively involved in Newberry College's annual Dufford Diversity and Inclusiveness Week and in the Newberry Opera House's Dufford Center for Cultural Diversity.
Immortalized in the writings of his most famous student, best-selling author Pat Conroy, veteran education administrator William E. Dufford has led an inspirational life as a stalwart champion for social justice and equal access for all to the empowerment of a good public education. A quintessential Southern storyteller now in his nineties, Dufford reflects on his own transformation through education.
