Welcome Back!
Celebrating 50 years of the Faculty of Social Work
On October 21 and 22, we are hosting a celebration and homecoming event to celebrate the Faculty’s 50th anniversary. The two-day event features an informal Friday evening reunion (5:30 – 9:00 p.m.) hosted in the Faculty of Social Work. You are invited to re-connect, mingle and share stories with classmates and have a look around the faculty. Hors d’oeuvres will be served throughout the evening and a cash bar is available.
On Saturday, 10:00 a.m. – 1:00 p.m., you are invited to bring your families for a celebration of the Faculty of Social Work being held in the Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning Building, located on the University of Calgary main campus, behind the MacEwan Student Centre. Saturday’s event will include a web-cast panel discussion about the history and future of the Faculty of Social Work with the opportunity to ask questions of current and former Deans. There will also be presentations of current research, and, of course, cake and balloons!
At 12:30 p.m. everyone is invited to take in the Dinos Football game for free (vs. University of Saskatchewan Huskies) with the opportunity to sit in the climate controlled Dinos suite, or in the stands if you prefer. A bus will transport you to and from the football game.
***Please note, while everyone is invited to join us at the football game, only a limited amount of seats are available on the bus. In order to ensure your spot, it is important for you to register a ticket for all the events you would like to attend. If you are bringing a guest, please register their names as well.
