Dear John,

It is hard to believe that it has been 21 years that you have been Chair of Deans Advisory Council at Schulich! What a 21 years it has been given the tremendous growth of the School's local and global influence. What was also impressive is how you always managed to keep us on schedule for these meetings, despite us having way too much content for our allotted time in virtually every meeting 🙂

You have also contributed mightily to the School and the University with your time, talent and treasure. I certainly appreciated serving with you on the DAC and York University's Board of Governors where I experienced first hand your wise counsel in action.

As we miss you on the Board, we will also miss you in your capacity as Chair of the DAC. Thank you for your tremendous service to the University and the School you have set an excellent example for all of us on how we can "give back"

Warm regards,
Paul Tsaparis
