Vice President Biden Makes Surprise Visit - 5/17/13

Vice President Joseph Biden, an alumnus from the class of 1961, made a surprise visit to Archmere Academy this afternoon. The Vice President stopped to talk to students and teachers in The Patio, the original classroom building and historic mansion on Archmere's campus, and to share stories from his time at Archmere. He shared with the students how the faculty at Archmere helped him to overcome a stutter that he had as an adolescent. "I owe Archmere so much," he said. "The priests at Archmere gave me the confidence to speak."
