Deanie Berryhill Tiddy Legacy Fund
Deanie Berryhill Tiddy ’51 was many things to Queens – a dedicated alumna, generous donor, and spirited volunteer. Her legacy of lifelong learning and service lives on through a new endowed fund established by her son, Wayne Teddy, and his wife, Leslie.
The Deanie Berryhill Tiddy ’51 Faculty Development Fund will support Queens faculty through research, sabbaticals, travel, and program development opportunities.
“To be successful teacher-scholars, it is important for faculty to engage in the scholarly conversations happening in their respective fields of study,” shared Jeremiah Wills, Ph.D., dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. “Participating in professional development opportunities enhances the quality of teaching, expands the impact of research and creative work, and supports faculty members’ professional growth and learning.”
Already this year, the fund has helped make five international travel opportunities possible. Queens faculty presented their work at conferences in Austria, Colombia, Puerto Rico, Mexico, and the United Kingdom – an experience that strengthens their disciplines and energizes their teaching.
Deanie spent her career as an educator and raised five sons with compassion and resilience. It is fiting that her name now graces a fund that supports the development of those shaping the next generation of thinkers, creators, and leaders.
“I am so grateful for the Deanie Berryhill Tiddy Faculty Development Fund. It helped me attend the College Music Society International Conference in Bogotá and Medellín, Colombia. Not only did I have incredible learning and networking opportunities, but I also presented on Imposter Syndrome for musicians and performed two works with my ensemble.”
