Two retirement parties will be held to honor Dianna McIntyre. Please join us in celebrating her faithful and dedicated years of service to our community.
All university employees are invited to celebrate on Monday, April 21, in the Stevens Center (Duke) Atrium from 3 to 5 p.m. (please note, this is a different time than the previous Daily Bruin announcement listed).
All George Fox students (past and present) are invited to celebrate on Tuesday, April 22, in the International Center/Cultural House from 3 to 4 p.m. (sharing time will begin at 3:20 p.m.).
Throughout her career, Dianna has brought to her work professionalism, joyfulness and a love for Christ and people. Her interactions with our faculty, staff and students are always marked by thoroughness, balanced with sensitivity and warmth. She has a gift for engaging students and helping them to grow and develop in the gifts and abilities God has given them.
Dianna has served as the adviser for the International Student Club and has also mentored a number of our student leaders, modeling a life of living for Christ and doing one’s best. Hugs, laughs and prayer are all common experiences for students meeting with Dianna, allowing students to leave her office with a genuine sense of being affirmed and truly known.
Please join us in wishing Dianna well as she retires from the university!
