Bio

Glenn Fell (‘76) was an original member of the Men’s Cross Country team during its inaugural season his sophomore year. He was recruited as a freshman as he was often spotted running around campus and all over the Quincy community. Over the three years that he ran cross country for ENC, Glenn led the team and won several races, running a best time of 25:14 for five miles. He fondly recalls his time on the team, and especially remembers training runs into Blue Hills or along the shore. 

Following graduation, he attended Oklahoma State University where he earned his MSc in Agronomy. After, Glenn completed a two-year stint in the Peace Corps as an agricultural specialist in Barbados and later went on to earn a PhD in Agronomy from Pennsylvania State University. Throughout each accomplishment, Glenn continued to run, participating in the Boston Marathon twice.

As for his professional accomplishments, Glenn taught for over 30 years in a variety of higher education and agricultural institutions.  

With this dream in mind, Glenn developed Jubilee Farms, Inc. a nonprofit that supports agricultural projects in Africa, providing agricultural training to more than 10,000 small scale farmers in Kenya, Zambia and Malawi and the funds for children in these communities to attend school. Glenn has retired from teaching, devoting his time to directing Jubilee Farms.
