Reminder: Farewell Reception for President Florizone

Posted by Office of the Vice-Provost, Planning and Analytics on November 28, 2018 in General Announcements

As Dr. Richard Florizone's time as president comes to an end and he prepares for his new role as director of the Quantum Valley Ideas Lab, the community is invited to a celebration of his time at Dalhousie:

November 28, 2018
4:00-6:00 p.m.
Emera ideaHUB | Emera Idea Building
5283 Morris St. 

Dalhousie has benefitted greatly from Dr. Florizone's leadership and vision. Our shared successes over the past five and a half years include reaching new heights with student enrolment and fundraising, full accreditation of academic programs, securing the largest federal research grant in Canada in 2016 for the Ocean Frontier Institute and supporting the successful Ocean Supercluster application, revitalizing our Sexton Campus through the $64M IDEA Project, working to create a more diverse and inclusive campus, and more.

Dr. Florizone's leadership has positioned Dalhousie as a catalyst and a collaborator for the region. As our 200th anniversary draws to a close, we are entering our third century stronger than ever. 

Please stop by and wish Dr. Florizone the best in his next endeavour. All are welcome to attend. ​​​
