Honouring Emeriti 2019
The 2019 Emeriti Honourees
Every year, the University of Manitoba bestows the title of Emeritus on exemplary individuals who have made a profound impact on their units, the university and the world. It is one of the highest honours at the University, and individuals are selected based on their distinguished service to administrative leadership, teaching, research, creative and scholarly works, and service.
On Wednesday, October 2, the University of Manitoba community celebrated the 2019 honorees which included a Chancellor Emeritus, a Vice-Provost Emeritus, a Distinguished Professor Emeritus, Professors Emeriti and Librarians Emeriti.
“As experts in their disciplines, they contributed to the collision of ideas that has placed our university and province at the forefront of education and research,” says UM President David Barnard. “They challenged the boundaries of research, created new transformative ideas and inspired others. We will always be grateful for their service to the University of Manitoba.”
