Drake faculty and staff who exemplify the Core Value of Generosity of Spirit will be recognized at the next Provost’s Drake Social on Thursday, Nov. 21, from 4–5:30 p.m. in Cowles Library Reading Room.

To nominate a colleague, please use this Qualtrics form . You can nominate up to five colleagues on each form. Feel free to fill out multiple forms. All those nominated will be recognized on a rolling display.

How do we define Generosity of Spirit? We look for colleagues who trust, empower, and presume the best of each other; who practice civility, caring, and respect; who are committed to equity and inclusion. When you nominate colleagues, think about referencing some of these descriptions. From amongst those nominated, several will be chosen at random for prizes.

The November Drake Social will be preceded by a Town Hall at 3:30 p.m. regarding International Education Week. Several of our international partners will be in attendance.

Refreshments will include wine, beer, soft drinks, and light snacks. This is a family-friendly event.
