Dale Greene

Dr. Greene is Professor of Forest Operations at Warnell School of Forest Resources, University of Georgia.

I was born in Magnolia, Arkansas and was raised in the piney woods and oil patch of north Louisiana, south Arkansas, and east Texas.  My parents are devout Christians and I was raised in a home where the foundation of our family was the church.  I earned my B.S.F. in forestry at LSU, my M.S. in forestry at Virginia Tech, and a Ph.D. in forestry at Auburn University.

My wife, Jeanna Wilson, is a poultry science professor here at Georgia.  We have made our home in Athens since 1986.  We have a son, Tom, who is an avid Georgia Bulldog and Atlanta Braves fan.  As a family we enjoy fishing, camping, and sports.

We worship at Athens First United Methodist Church where both Jeanna and I are active in the children and youth Sunday School programs.  We are also active in the Athens Area Emmaus Community.  I also co-lead a Disciple Bible Study class each week.  Athens is blessed with many strong faith communities both on and off campus and we are continually strengthened by these groups.
