Dear Colleagues,

As you may already know, Verena Stolcke, full professor at the Department of Social and Cultural Anthropology, Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, for nearly 30 years, is retiring at the end of this academic year. Fortunately, her colleagues and friends will still enjoy her as she will be appointed as Emeritus Professor next September. From our Department, we are glad to celebrate with her the fulfillment of a long professional and personal period and the opening of a promising new one.

The celebration will take place at the Auditorium of the Faculty of Philosophy and Arts of the UAB, next Tuesday May 20th, from 09:30AM to 14:30 PM. Everybody is welcome.
Please, forward this message to your students and colleagues. You'll find the events detailed in the attached file.

Kindest regards,
