If you were on campus this Tuesday you might have seen our own Asmeret Gheabreab among the throng of happy convocating students. Asmeret, a Library Assistant in the Kellogg Health Sciences Library’s Technical Services department, is now the proud holder of a Bachelor of Management degree. What makes her accomplishment even more special is that she acquired her degree while working and parenting full time—she has three children.
“I love learning,” says Asmeret, who already had a degree in Business Administration from the Nova Scotia Community College. When she began working at Dal, she thought “Okay, what’s next?” She saw the Dal staff tuition waiver as a prime opportunity to foster her passion for lifelong learning, and registered with the Faculty of Management program.
And what will she do with her newly earned laurels? “I’ll just wait and see where life takes me,” she says with a big smile. “I’m always open to new challenges, and I can’t wait to spread my wings and fly!”

Congrats, Asmeret! As a former Supervisor of yours, I always admired your dedication to your education and the conscientious way you accepted work demands at times when you were very burdened with course demands and life in general.
All the best for your future road ahead!
