Social Work

Campus flags will be lowered Thursday, May 31, in memory of retired professor of social work James Clark, who died May 21. He joined the University of Windsor faculty in 1969 and retired in 1990.

Funeral arrangements were incomplete at the DailyNews publication deadline.

Preliminary renderings of the University of Windsor’s downtown campus were revealed by president Alan Wildeman during a media conference Wednesday, April 17, in the Windsor Armouries.

“The University of Windsor is creating new spaces where our students, faculty and staff can be engaged in innovative teaching, learning and discovery, and where they can more effectively partner with the arts community and social agencies to make a difference,” Dr. Wildeman said.

Growing up in a region of the world that’s steeped in the ancient traditions of Confucianism, Sung Hyun Yun never gave it a second thought when his mother explained to him that he didn’t need to be in the kitchen helping with the dishes because he was a boy.

“It was very natural to accept gender-based norms and behaviour,” said Dr. Yun, a professor in the School of Social Work, who was born and raised in Busan, South Korea’s second-largest city.

Elizabeth Donnelly is quite the matchmaker. The assistant professor of social work matched all the correct answer in yesterday’s DailyNews trivia contest, winning two tickets to see the University Players production of Emma.

Dr. Donnelly’s name was drawn from all those who identified Emma Woodhouse and her true love George Knightly, as well as the film Clueless, which loosely retold their story.
