Jacalyn Berry is a senior and 3-time ISBT Scholarship recipient.

I am very thankful for ISBT's continued support in my education. Thank you for reaching out and thinking of me. I have provided a little update below; please let me know if this is okay or if you need any more information. Thank you again for your support and consideration.

I would like to start off with thanking you for the ISBT scholarship in 2016 and 2017, as well as, the opportunity to apply for the 2018-2019 academic year. I was able to use the scholarship to continue my education and expand my knowledge of the packaging industry. I have had the opportunity to be involved in hands on laboratory testing of materials, represent Clemson at PackExpo, and join different Creative Inquiries on campus. I am now a senior at Clemson University studying Packaging Science. I just finished a internship with Plastic Omnium in Anderson, SC. I was able to gain greater knowledge of the manufacturing side of the plastics business and better understand where I want my focus to be going forward. I am interested in continuing my relationship with ISBT in reference to the upcoming 2018 Fall semester. I plan to graduate in May 2019 where I hope to pursue a career in plastics. Your support for my career and education is greatly appreciated. I am available for further discussion or questions if needed.
