Tenure Recognition Program

The Tenure Recognition Program, sponsored by the Friends of Dacus Library and held each spring as part of the Friends' Spring Program, recognizes the achievement of tenure by Winthrop University faculty. Faculty may choose a book for the Dacus Library collection, and share a few words about their selection and its meaning to them. Honorees are also given a complimentary one-year membership to the Friends.
