Saying goodbye to a member of the College of Charleston family is never easy โ€“ but sometimes itโ€™s cause for celebration, too.

Such is the case for the 15 employees who retired from the College between July and December 2023.

โ€œWe are grateful to all of our employees who have retired over the past six months, and we salute them for everything they have done to make the College a better place,โ€ saysย Ed Pope, vice president of human resources at the College of Charleston. โ€œWe wish them all the best in their next chapter.โ€
