Resource Center For Retired University Personnel

DU  Retirees Maintain Important Link With University

The Resource Center for Retired University Personnel was created in 1979 to serve as the organizational link between the University and retired faculty and staff. 

In early 1979 Professor Emerita Dorothea Spellman persuaded a combined group of retired University Persons and senior faculty and staff persons to serve as a task force for the creation of a Resource Center for Retired University Personnel.  The faculty and staff who established the Resource Center for Retired University Personnel were Dorothea Blair, William Driscoll, Abraham Grossman, Lucille Hatch, Kenneth Kindelsperger, Karen  Landergren, Phillip Perdew, Martha Rahe, Dorothea Spellman, Natalie Vaughn and Henry Welch.

The Center’s primary purpose is to assist individuals who are preparing for retirement, to promote the interests of all retired faculty and staff, to promote continued communications between the retirees and the University, to encourage the use of the expertise of retired personnel regarding special problems within the University, and to coordinate retiree benefits with the Department of  Human Resources  of  the University.

The ongoing operations of the Resource Center are directed by a Board of Directors composed of nine retired faculty/staff, and ex-officio members as deemed appropriate.  The Board of  Directors  hold monthly meetings during the academic year under the direction of a chairperson who maintains communications with the DU Administration.

A secretary keeps a file of retired faculty and staff, a current mailing list, sends information to new retirees and updates the Professors Emeritus and Amici Universitatis section of the Faculty and Staff Directory.  The secretary provides assistance to the Special Community Programs Division, Office of the Provost, for the Amici/Amicae Awards Program.  In the absence of the Chairperson, the secretary presides at all functions and meetings of the Board and of the General Membership.

Members of the Board play an  active role in assuring the maintenance of an adequate benefits program for retirees.

Three times each year all retirees are invited to a special on-campus program which features topics of general interest to the  membership.  Announcements of  the  meetings

are  made through the Resource Center Newsletter.  These meetings are held on the third Wednesdays of October, February and April.  The highlight of the year is our Spring Luncheon which is held in April at the Phipps Tennis Pavilion, compliments of the Provost.

Board member, Keith Heaton, is currently trying to develop “Retiree Interest Groups” within the DU Retiree Organization, to make it a more interesting, productive  and helpful place to enjoy your retirement years.   We would definitely like to hear from you regarding your interests and ideas for establishing these groups.

The University of  Denver has been a member of the Association of Retirement Organizations in Higher Education (AROHE) since 2003.  This is a young national and international organization whose goal is to encourage communication between retirees and their institutions and at the same time promote communication among member institutions for the purpose of enhancing both retiree and university benefits.

Anita West, board member and former chair, serves on the board of AROHE.  She  has attended the AROHE conferences which are held every two years and maintains constant communication to keep the board advised of the actions of the organization.  Anyone interested in learning more about AROHE can visit its website: AROHE.org

At the time of your retirement the Pioneer Card Access Office will issue you a Pioneer Card designated for retirees. Benefits available to card holders include library privileges, discounts on athletic events, theater and musical productions, book store discounts and tuition waivers.  A complete list of privileges is mailed to each new retiree.

All retirees and widowed spouses are entitled to receive copies of   SOURCE,  the University newspaper for faculty, staff and friends, as well as regular issues of the University of Denver Magazine.
