The Department of Education and Psychology has held a send-off party in honour of three retirees of the Department.

 They are Dr. Stephen Baafi-Frimpong (Senior Lecturer), Madam Gloria Sarfo (Chief Administrative Assistant) and Mr. Palmas Anyagre (Senior Lecturer), who rendered 26 years of dedicated service to the Department.

 Past and present faculty members in the department spoke highly of the retirees, indicating that their milk of human kindness, sober and affable nature would be missed.

 In farewell messages, Dr. Baafi-Frimpong entreated lecturers to relate well with their students and charged them to uphold the tenets of discipline in the classroom. He called for unity among staff to take the Department to greater heights.

 Mr. Palmas Anyagre, for his part, urged lecturers in the Department to help one another and sacrifice for the Department.

 The Head of the Department, Prof. Mark Kwaku Owusu Amponsah, in a message, congratulated the retirees on their many years of meritorious service to the Department and the University of Cape Coast.

 While wishing them the best in their endeavours, he expressed the hope that the retirees would bring their wealth of experiences to bear on the development of the Department.

The retirees were later presented with gifts by the Department at the event, which was held at the University Catering Services (UniCat).
