Butler County Community College professor killed in DC plane crash
WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) – The National Association of Biology Teachers has confirmed another victim of American Airlines Flight 5342 that crashed with a military helicopter and landed in the Potomac River in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday. The National Association of Biology Teachers is devastated to report that NABT President-Elect Lindsey (Carter) Fields was aboard American Airlines Flight 5342, which collided with a helicopter in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday, January 29, 2025. Lindsey was traveling to represent the NABT community and advocate for excellence in life science education. This is a tremendous loss. Please keep Lindsey, the other victims, and their families in your hearts. We also ask that you respect the privacy of her loved ones at this time. We will share more information as it becomes available.' The NABT Board of Directors Fields taught a variety of classes at Butler County Community College. In her biography, she wrote that she graduated from Seward Community College with an associate's degree in pre-veterinary medicine and Oklahoma State University with a bachelor of science and a master of science in zoology. Before teaching at BCCC, she spent time doing PhD work at the University of Mississippi working in molecular genetics and taught at Ole Miss. Fields continued to share that she enjoyed cooking, reading, hiking (any type of activity outdoors, really), and spending time with her family and Great Danes. She also said that she loved to travel to the mountains and spend time fishing. 'Knowing the warmth and energy Lindsey radiated to all who had the good fortune of encountering her, we are actively seeking more information and will share what we learn with you as soon as possible,' said BCCC in an email to families. 'Our counseling services have been altered, which are available, free of charge, for any student or faculty member needing assistance during this time. If needed, do not hesitate to reach out to Nancy Hamm at 316-322-3162 or email nhamm2@ BCCC also wrote that Fields' family asks the community to respect their privacy for the time being.
