The Tulane University School of Professional Advancement (SoPA) hosted its annual Faculty Convocation on Friday, March 26, during which recipients from both 2020 and 2021 were recognized for their outstanding accomplishments in the classroom.
“This convocation is about recognizing the contributions you make to our students and to our school,” said SoPA Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Ilianna Kwaske to the faculty. “In the midst of so many uncertainties, challenges, and changes, you all have persevered in your commitment to our students.”
The 2020 event, typically held in March at Tulane’s 1834 Club, was canceled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. During this year’s virtual convocation, both faculty and students tuned in to show support for the recipients.
