The Drake Social on Thursday, Nov. 21, will be preceded by a Town Hall at 3:30 p.m. in celebration of International Education Week. The event will be held in the Cowles Library Reading Room.

Drake faculty and staff who exemplify the Core Value of Generosity of Spirit will also be honored at the social.

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. Generosity of Spirit is defined as colleagues who trust, empower, and presume the best of each other; who practice civility, caring, and respect; and who commit to equity and inclusion.

When you nominate colleagues, be prepared to describe how each colleague meets these descriptions. From among those nominated, several will be chosen at random for prizes.

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