Math Instructor Daphne Perkins has retired from Black River Technical College (BRTC) after 22 years of service.

“Daphne has been a steady and thoughtful presence in our department, and her impact goes well beyond the classroom,” Travis Harris, math instructor, said. “She brought consistency, a strong commitment to students, and a leadership style that helped keep things grounded.”

Perkins was recognized at a retirement reception and at an end-of-the-year celebration for BRTC faculty and staff. She received a plaque and her choice of a bench or rocking chair to recognize her commitment to BRTC.
