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.

Helen Suzman Exhibition

Dear Friends,
The Office of Community, Government and International Affairs and the Center for Intercultural Programs would like to invite DePaul University retirees to a special event: The Helen Suzman Exhibition. Helen Szuman, the iconic South African leader who devoted her life to the fight against apartheid, was a member of the South African Parliament for 36 years, from 1953-1989.

She was the sole opposition voice condemning apartheid during the 13-year period (1961-1974) when she was the governing body's only member of the Progressive Party.

Please join in the opening of this exhibit, which chronicles the life and political career of Helen Suzman through artifacts and photos.
