Dear McMaster faculty and staff,

Over the past two and a half years of the pandemic, you have shown resilience and adaptability to ensure our university and our students continue to thrive.

As we look forward to welcoming our students, faculty and staff back to campus in person this fall, McMaster’s president and vice-presidents are hosting a barbecue to express a heartfelt “thank you” for all of your hard work and dedication.

Please join us in the Green Mall in front of the Burke Science Building to enjoy a hamburger (vegetarian options available), some treats, entertainment and to socialize with your co-workers and senior university leaders.

As part of our celebration, there will be a chance to win some fun prizes. Stay tuned for more information.

We hope to see you there!
