A group called Women Acknowledging Community Service recently presented Dr. Charles Bonds, as “A Trailblazer in the Education Field,” a check for $1,000 for his leadership and community service in Statesboro and Bulloch County. Bonds is a professor emeritus of the College of Education at Georgia Southern University, where he taught 24 years and did research in reading/language arts and special education. He was the first African-American GSU faculty member to achieve the rank of full professor.
Educator honored for years of service
