The goal of the Georgetown University Association of Retired Faculty and Staff (GUARFS) is to serve as a liaison between retired faculty, AAPs, staff and the University support its emeriti members’ professional endeavors through retired faculty grants, facilitate social ties through lectures, tours, and cultural activities, provide volunteering opportunities, and reach out to the community through the Learning Community Program.
New Partnership with GU Alumni Association Travel Society

They welcome all current and retired Georgetown faculty and staff, Georgetown alumni, families, parents, and University friends to join their trips.
