End of term wrap up
I would like to congratulate all students, faculty, and staff for all their efforts to make the Autumn 2011 term so successful. It’s been a lot of hard work for everyone, but well worth it. Last night’s party was a huge success. Many people worked very hard to organize last night’s festivities, but I think you’ll agree that Elinor Crosby should be thanked in particular. The turnout was excellent, the company delightful, and the food delicious; I am especially thankful to the organizing team who were thoughtful enough to ensure that I had a steady supply of delectable vegan hors d’oeuvres.
This term will mark also the end of Shanna Balogh’s tenure with the School. Shanna has been the bedrock of the School for so many years that it is hard to imagine what it will be like without her. Faculty and staff have had a chance to celebrate with Shanna; I encourage all students to make their good wishes personally to Shanna. Shanna has many activities planned for her retirement; the first of which involves a month in France. So, while we are saddened that Shanna will be leaving us, we all wish her a happy, active, and full retirement.
As assignments and marking wind down this month, I hope that you all have a chance to enjoy the holiday break with your families and loved ones. For those of you who celebrate it, have a very Merry Christmas. I look forward to seeing all of you in the new 2012 academic term.
