In addition to being alumni, the Fells and Joys are former faculty/staff members at the college and have remained engaged with their alma mater since graduation.
Paul Fell was an art professor, and Arlene Fell taught home/consumer economics from 1974-84, and later were longtime co-Presidents of Peru State College’s National Alumni Association.
