SFU a winning workplace
June 12, 2008
SFU received this year’s YWCA Vancouver Innovative Workplace of the Year Award at the annual Women of Distinction banquet May 26. The award recognizes the university’s supportive work culture and opportunities for education, training and development.
In accepting the award, VP-legal affairs Judith Osborne noted that three of the university’s vice-presidents are women and the directors of the Surrey and Vancouver campuses are both female. She also pointed out that 60 per cent of SFU’s students are women and SFU was the first Canadian university to have a female president, Pauline Jewett (1974–78).
