Faculty Emeriti

In our ongoing effort to establish a more consistent pattern of meeting and interacting with faculty emeriti, emeriti are invited back to campus for several events:

Faculty emeriti luncheon
Of note, the OFD sponsors a luncheon each semester, which also allows emeriti to keep in contact with each other as well as with the SNC community.

Commencement ceremonies
Emeriti are invited to participate in Commencement ceremonies. Details are distributed to all emeriti through the Office of the Dean and the Office of Faculty Development as the date approaches.

Faculty farewell dinners
The Office of Faculty Development, in collaboration with the President and Dean of the College, host a farewell dinner for retiring faculty and their guests. Earlier in the day, the college community recognizes their years of dedicated service at the Faculty Awards Reception. The community also presents gifts of appreciation.

In addition, other offices on campus have become aware of the importance of keeping our emeriti “in the loop,” and so emeriti are included in every event that might interest them.
