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.

Happy 100th Birthday

The College of Commerce, now the Driehaus College of Business, the College of Law and the School of Music are all celebrating their Centennial this academic year, 2012-2013.  A special website to recognize these anniversaries has been created.  On its front page it reads:

For the past century, DePaul's colleges of business, law and music have shaped Chicago and changed the world. Their stellar faculty members have made lasting contributions to their fields, launched new areas of study, inspired generations of students and enriched the city through dedicated service and amazing performances. During our centennial celebrations in 2012-13, we'll commemorate our legacy of excellence, innovation and outreach.

Since so many of our DES members were instrumental during the ten decades of each school's existence we thought you might be interested in participating in some of the events and activities.  If so, just click on the Anniversary Celebrations webpage to learn about the festivities.

Happy 100th Birthday!
