Farewell Celebration for Esther Terry

UMass Amherst is holding a farewell celebration for Esther Terry on Friday, May 29, from 4:00-6:00 pm, in the Student Union Ballroom. Esther is retiring from UMass, but apparently she won't be all that retiring — she will become Provost at Bennett College for Women in North Carolina. Esther is being honored with an endowment fund to support PhD research in Afro-American Studies here at UMass Amherst. The fund, as well as some of Esther's major achievements, are described here. An achievement that isn't listed: our own J. Michael Terry, 2004 UMass Amherst PhD, now Assistant Professor in Linguistics at UNC Chapel Hill!
