  • UWG Association of Retired Faculty and Staff (ARFS) ANNUAL
    UWG Association of Retired Faculty and Staff (ARFS) ANNUAL REPORT For the dates: August 27, 2017 - August 11, 2018 Mitchell H. Clifton, Past President, ARFS Submitted on March 29, 2019 Introduction On October 7-9, 2018, two ARFS Coordinating Council members (Mitch Clifton and Anne Richards) attended the Ninth Biennial Conference of the Association of Retirement Organizations in Higher Education (AROHE) at Emory University in Atlanta. One session at this meeting discussed the benefits of a retiree organization producing an annual report. Later, Mitch and Anne decided that ARFS should, for the first time, consider producing such a report. At our January 19, 2019 ARFS Coordinating Council meeting, it was agreed that ARFS should produce an annual report for the time period starting on the day after the 2017 Annual Reunion (August 27, 2017), and ending on the date of the 2018 Annual Reunion (August 11, 2018). It was also agreed that Mitch Clifton should write this initial report. This report is being submitted in two forms: (1) a paper copy of three pages, and (2) a PDF file containing the three page report and ten appendices.
