Susan Hawke

Susan Hawke worked at the Careers Resource Centre at Concordia for more than 25 years, helping thousands of students prepare for their important step into the working world.

From 1998 to 2003 she was a valuable member of the board of directors and treasurer of the Association of Alumni of Sir George Williams University.

Susan’s special contribution to the University community, however, has been her work with the Concordia Used Book Fair. She first became involved with the Book Fair in the late 1990s, and in 2001 became its chief organizer. 

In its 22 years, the book fair has raised more than $240,000 for students, while providing a new life for countless books. The money raised goes to Concordia students facing financial hardship and to the Concordia Used Book Fair Scholarship, which Susan initiated in 2003.
