Celebrating Dr. Susan Rvachew’s Retirement

It is with deep appreciation that we announce the retirement of Dr. Susan Rvachew, Co-Lead of the Technology & New Media theme for the Ensuring Full Literacy in a Multicultural and Digital World SSHRC partnership grant. 

Susan’s leadership, expertise, and unwavering commitment have been key to the success of the grant. Her work has been integral to advancing our goals, and her thoughtful suggestions and insightful comments have guided the team throughout. Susan has been a trusted voice, always ready to listen and provide honest, constructive feedback that helped shape our decisions and direction. 

Beyond her contributions to the project itself, we are grateful for Susan’s vital role in the governance of the grant. Her dedication and perspective enriched the work of the entire partnership. 

While we will miss her participation, we celebrate this next chapter in Susan’s life with gratitude and admiration. Thank you, Susan, for everything you’ve done to advance our shared mission. We wish you all the best in your retirement!
