The stage in the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium looked a lot different this past Monday than it did a week earlier during Fall Convocation ceremonies, but the mood in the room was no less celebratory.

Gone were the rows of seats. In their place, a single table covered in dozens of glass sculptures 鈥� each shaped like a wave to symbolize the rippling impact of the faculty and staff who received them at this year鈥檚 Legacy Awards ceremony.

"Thank you to all of you for joining us today as we celebrate our faculty and staff, the people whose leadership, dedication and hard work leaves such an important legacy in the lives of our students and our communities,鈥� said Dal President Deep Saini in opening remarks at the event, the first held in person since 2019.

The Legacy Awards ceremony first launched in 2018 as part of the university鈥檚 200^th anniversary and is held annually to celebrate and showcase recipients of university-wide awards distributed throughout the year across a range of university functions from teaching and research to administration.

鈥淸The Legacy Awards] give us an opportunity to highlight the strength of our community and the strengths of our faculty and staff,鈥� said Chris Hattie, Dal鈥檚 acting assistant vice-president, human resources, and emcee for this year鈥檚 ceremony.

Colleagues, friends, family and other supporters turned out to see award recipients cross the stage at the Cohn to receive their sculpture from President Saini.

Attendees at this year鈥檚 ceremony were also treated to a musical performance by Morgan Toney, an award-winning Mi鈥檏maq fiddler from Cape Breton. He was joined on stage by songwriter Keith Mullins.

The formal ceremony was followed by a short reception in the sculpture court of the 麻豆传媒 Arts Centre. Light food and refreshments were offered as people chatted and posed for photos, with the Dal Tiger and Ram on hand for added picture fun.
