As 30 white doves circled overhead and a lone bagpiper played “Amazing Grace,” the UC Berkeley campus took a moment on Monday to remember those from the campus community who died over the last year.
“It’s important that we have ceremonies like this, a ceremony that reflects the genuine community of this campus,” said Chancellor Nicholas Dirks at the midday gathering on the lawn around the flagpole just behind California Hall. “It affirms the profound connection that binds us together, and to the campus and the community.” Behind him, the flag flew at half-staff above two wreaths of blue and gold flowers. A steady stream of those in attendance stepped up to the foot of the flagpole to leave flowers.
Monday’s was the 13th annual campus memorial, and it honored more than 90 faculty, emeriti, students and staff, whose names were read aloud. The names appear below, and are also posted online here. Photos of the memorial can be viewed in the slideshow below.
