Earlier this month the University recognized long-serving staff at a series of events held at the F Street House for achieving employment milestones of 5, 10, 15, 20 or more years of service.

President Thomas LeBlanc and Mrs. LeBlanc welcomed attendees personally to their house and congratulated them individually. Career milestone achievers then enjoyed a lavish reception and got to meet and mingle with their fellow honorees.

In addition to a special gift, each person received a GW lapel pin with the appropriate number of years of service engraved on it. Due to the pandemic the 2020 event had to be canceled and so faculty and staff who had hit their milestones last year were also included in this year’s celebrations.
