Last week, members of the Faculty of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences gathered in the Performance Hall at the SoCA Armouries to celebrate colleagues and listen to dean Cheryl Collier’s “State of the Faculty” address.
The presentation highlighted achievements during the past academic year, as well as challenges and opportunities going forward. Dr. Collier also treated her audience to a first look at the renderings for phase one of the Collaboration Hub that will be located on the first floor of Chrysler Hall Tower.
This year the event incorporated an expanded “Faculty and Staff Celebration of Excellence” awards presentation.
Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Decolonization Champion Award: Frankie Cachon, Camille Armour, and Angela Wang
As co-chairs of the FAHSS EDID Committee, Dr. Cachon, Armour, and Wang led initiatives to dismantle structures, processes, and systems that perpetuate marginalization and exclusion, and advocate for meaningful change at both the department and university-wide levels.
Research/Creative Activity Excellence Award: Francisca Omorodion, Sociology & Criminology
Dr. Omorodion has contributed immensely to knowledge and understanding of the experiences and plight of racialized Black groups by retelling their stories and making their voices heard locally, nationally, and globally through publications in international journals and presentations at learned conferences.
Dr. Kathleen McCrone Teaching Award: Gregg French, History
Despite being at the University of Windsor in a full-time capacity for only three years, Dr. French has already made an impressive impact on the lives of students, faculty, staff, and individuals throughout our community.
Faculty Service Excellence Award: Rosanne Menna, Psychology
Dr. Menna is a long-standing, highly valued, and respected member of the Child Clinical Track in the Department of Psychology. Her service to the department, university, community, and profession are substantial and worthy of recognition.
Staff Service Excellence Award: Tamilyn Mulvaney, Philosophy and History
Tamilyn Mulvaney has served as the administrative assistant for both the Department of Philosophy and the Department of History since November 2022. Mulvaney approaches their work more as a vocation than a job, a mission dedicated to helping students.
