  • Annual Report 2014
    UNIVERSITY OF GUAM UNIBETSEDÅT GUAHAN Society of Emeritus Professors & Retired Scholars The Society’s Eighteenth Annual Report (2014) Compiled by Cynthia B. Sajnovsky, Professor Emerita of Music, Secretary, SEPRS UOG SEPRS An Overview of the Society’s Eighteenth Annual Report (2014) I want to highlight the vitality that members of the Society of Emeritus Professors and Retired Scholars (SEPRS) have shown in numerous academic, research, and service activities. For many of the UOG community – but not all – their awareness of professors emeriti and retired scholars is “out of sight, out of mind.” Yet this report demonstrates how retired faculty continue to help the University achieve its mission for our community and the region. You can locate specific faculty which are listed alphabetically, and in- time we plan to insert a “search-link” function so you can easily click on a name. SEPRS has 53 current members, of whom half live on Guam (26) and half live off-island across the nation (27). Some of us show the affects of our age, yet3/4ths (38) are active members who participate in the Society’s quarterly meetings, donate to the University, or at least report their activities. In 2014, using IT teleconferencing video technology, we have had five (5) off-island members regularly join and participate in the Society’s quarterly meetings held in Emeritus Hall on-island. So what do these retirees do? Well nearly one-third of the members listed in this report are teaching and mentoring university students. For example at UOG that includes Filomena Contoria, George Kallingal, Lourdes Klitzke, and Milagros Moguel, and off-island take a look at Joyce McCauley.
