Saint Rose recognizes faculty retirements and milestones

Typically, the College recognizes faculty who have retired, reached employment milestones, are achieving emeritus status or rank and tenure promotions with an annual gathering in the spring. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this annual in-person celebration has not been able to occur for the last couple of years.

Instead, the College is recognizing these important members of the College community with a recognition video, in which you can hear from some of the recent retirees.

Below, you’ll find a list of faculty who are being recognized:
