University Years of Service and Faculty Retirement and Recognition Reception Events The 2025 Faculty and Staff Years of Service Celebration was held on Knoles Lawn with a buffet luncheon. Years of service recognition were given to more than 165 faculty and staff that have served the University from one to forty years. Service awards were also given to exceptional faculty and staff. The Provost and Cabinet members recognized all individuals and highlighted how important faculty and staff are in the recruitment, retention and success of our students. The Faculty Retirement and Recognition Reception was held in the University Center Ballroom following the Years of Service luncheon. Dessert and beverages were served as the Provost recognized retirees, as well as faculty awardees. Allen Wong was our Emeriti Society representative and gave a warm welcome from the Emeriti Society to all individuals. Deans introduced 11 retirees celebrating their achievements: Rae Gamboni Charos, School of Health Sciences; John Sprankling, McGeorge School of Law; Jeff Crawford, Conservatory of Music; Tamer Alpagot, Bill Lundergan, Patrick Roetzer from the Dugoni School of Dentistry; and Mouchumi Bhattacharyya, Brett DeBoer, Brian Klunk, Camille Norton, and Lisa Tromovitch from the College. It was an uplifting and inspiring event with the retirees regaling their history and experiences.
