President's update - January 2020

As we welcome in 2020, I can look back at my first two months as President of the UWSA.

First of all, it is truly an honour to serve in this position.  We have a terrific board of dedicated UW staff members, plus our own two very dedicated UWSA staff - Gail Spencer and Cathy Bolger.  I am so grateful for this great group of people to work with, on behalf of our members.

Reflections on my first two weeks of being President

I am now coming up to two weeks in my official duties as President of the Staff Association.  And I have to say, it’s been a bit of a whirlwind!

As you may know by now, Rose Vogt tendered her resignation from the Board as she was moving on to the greener pastures of retirement.  We all wish her a happy retirement!  But that did leave us with a vacancy in the role of Past President which Michael Herz has agreed to take on – thanks Michael!
