      History

      Elizabeth Morey’s first employment at Concordia was as Student Advisor in the Sir George Dean of Students Office from 1980-1984. In October, 1985 Morey was appointed Advisor to the Rector on the Status of Women by the Board of Governors with a mandate to conduct research and make recommendations on all matters affecting women on campus, including students, faculty, and staff. Subsequently, a 10-member (all female) Committee on the Status of Women was established and chaired by Morey and her term as Chair was extended to May 1, 1992.

      From November 1, 1988 to 1994 Morey served as Coordinator of Special Projects in the Office of the Rector. In June, 1989 she was named Acting Director of the Council for International Cooperation, following Martin Singer (the position was filled in April 1991). Morey left Concordia for Marianopolis College in 1994, followed by a term at a university in the United Arab Emirates. In Fall, 2002 Morey returned to Concordia temporarily, as Communications and Special Projects Officer in the Faculty of Fine Arts. In 2008 she was named Dean of Students. She served as Dean for a three-year term and retired in May, 2011.
