Introduction

About the DePaul Emeritus Society

DePaul University values its ongoing connections with its faculty and staff retirees, as it values their past contributions to the university’s mission. The DePaul University Emeritus Society was founded in 2008 with the merger of the Staff Emeritus Society and the Emeritus Professors Association. The Society is sponsored by the University’s Office of Mission and Values.

The purpose of the DePaul Emeritus Society is to provide a means for ongoing connection, communication, and socialization between the university and its emeritus faculty and staff, and between individual retirees whose professional lives were for so many years dedicated to university service.

Photos, events, and information of interest to members of the DePaul Emeritus Society will be posted to this blog. Please take a look, add your comment, offer to be an "author" or just enjoy.

  1. In Saudi Arabia, the landscape of nurse salaries is shaped by several pivotal factors including the nurse's role, experience, and the healthcare setting. Entry-level nurses typically earn a base salary that may increase significantly with advanced degrees and specialized skills. Compensation packages often extend beyond base salary, offering additional perks such as housing allowances, transport subsidies, and comprehensive health insurance, especially for expatriate nurses. These benefits enhance the attractiveness of a nursing career in Saudi Arabia. The country's healthcare sector has been expanding rapidly, creating a high demand for proficient nursing staff. Consequently, salary structures are regularly reviewed to maintain competitive standards and encourage the professional development of nurses within the kingdom's dynamic healthcare landscape.
