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.

Service Awards Luncheon, May 24, 2011

Over 300 members of the DePaul Community were honored at the 23rd Annual Distinguised Service Awards Luncheon held at the Chicago Cultural Center. A number of retirees attended and enjoyed seeing colleagues, hearing both Fr. Holtschneider remarks and the reflections made by the three speakers -- and sampling the food which was quite good!
