About E. Helen (Eddy) Berry

Dr. Berry, Emeritus Professor of Sociology graduated from Buckeye Heaven in 1983, then spent time in a post-doc in Wolverine Purgatory at the Population Studies Center. She became an Aggie in 1984 and has been here through three dogs, three cats, three hamsters, three fish, two kids, one spousal unit, and a mortgage. In spite of all that, she continues to be quite fond of kids, as well as dogs, cats, fish, and spouse, but not of mortgages. She is happy to discuss demography, statistics, methods, or rural sociology with anyone, on any day, except during the Christmas Bird Count.
