The dinner, which is an annual event, was the first in three years to be hosted in person and without restrictions, and the excitement among those in attendance was palpable. In her introductory statement, Professor Phakeng highlighted the significance of events like these.
“It’s important for us to connect – and to connect at a social level. We do a lot of hard work at the university and it’s in the nature of the people we hire to be driven and do everything. So, it’s important that we slow down sometimes and acknowledge the good work that we’ve done,” she said.
