A Message From The
President, Retirees'
Association
Y2K is an interesting symbol for us retirees. It's the beginning of the end of this millennium, and so I think of it as symbolizing the completion of the income-earning portion of our professional careers, but not the end of our activities. And as the beginning of the 2000-decade, it also signifies new beginnings and new experiences for many of us.
As a retirees' association, we've had some interesting experiences this year in securing representation on the important Faculty Association committees and bodies. The Faculty Association has ratified these constitutional developments through a general-membership mail ballot. Our sense is that these new arrangements will make a real difference in getting our voice heard.
It has also become evident to us that the Faculty Association and the University are now becoming more attentive to retiree issues than they have been in the past. I see all this as marking an auspicious entry into the new decade. I see it, too, as an exercise in securing the respect and honor that we have earned in helping to build the University of Windsor.
To all of you, my warmest wishes for a happy holiday season, and for a healthy, happy and fulfilling New Year.
Stan Cunningham
