Dal鈥檚 annual Milestones Reception offers a chance to shine a light on those employees who鈥檝e remained dedicated to the university for the long haul.
Dozens of individuals receive their long-service pin at the ceremony each year in recognition of reaching milestones of 25, 35, 45, and 50 years of service.
鈥淭hese are remarkable milestones,鈥� said Kim Brooks, Dal鈥檚 acting provost and vice-president academic at the latest milestones celebration earlier this month.
It was one of two such receptions to take place this spring at Dal. The first, held in March, was to celebrate employees who reached milestones in 2021 and the more recent was to mark those who hit anniversaries in 2022. Both ceremonies were postponed due to pandemic restrictions.
