Celebrating David's Retirement

Today we celebrated David Stanley's 26 years of service to Seton Hill as the Director of Reeves Memorial Library. Dr. Stanley will be retiring at the end of next week and will be sorely missed by many on the Hill! (For those attending Fall Workshop, he does plan to attend the reception honoring retirees at the end of the second day.) Please join us in wishing him the best!
