The Faculty of Graduate Studies is hosting an open house reception to celebrate the retirement of associate dean Debbie Kane on Thursday, June 27, from 3 to 5 p.m. in the Freed-Orman Centre.
A 1980 alumna of the UWindsor undergraduate nursing program, Dr. Kane began her tenure at the University in 1989, serving as a professor of nursing in addition to her roles in the Faculty of Graduate Studies.
“Debbie’s success at the University of Windsor is testament to her work ethic and her desire to make the University the best it can be,” says dean of graduate studies Patti Weir. “Please join me in thanking Debbie and congratulating her on a well-earned and well-deserved retirement.”
Kane’s community volunteerism includes stints on the Windsor-Essex County Board of Health and as the Windsor-Essex, Chatham-Kent, and Lambton representative to the Registered Nurses Association of Ontario.
