Check your inbox – the 2023 edition of the annual faculty-produced ELI magazine, Interactions is on its way to our alumni, homestay hosts, and global partners!
This year’s theme is “The House That Dr. Stevens Built.” After 42 years of service to UD, the global community, and tens of thousands of international students, Dr. Stevens is moving on to the next chapter of his life: retirement!
As the beloved “architect” of the ELI’s metaphorical “house,” Dr. Stevens has laid a sturdy foundation upon which we can continue to uphold traditions as well as create new ones. Students, instructors, global partners and beyond all form the building blocks in the “house” that Dr. Stevens built, and we know that the ELI will be in good hands under its next “builder”: Dr. Cheryl Ernst.
Please take the time to learn more about Dr. Stevens’ legacy at the ELI as well as get to know our incoming director, Dr. Cheryl (as students call her), in this year’s edition of ELI Interactions!
Visit our Kudoboard for Dr. Stevens today!
