On Sept. 18, campus to remember those lost in the last year

By Public Affairs

UC Berkeley’s annual memorial ceremony honoring members of the campus community who have died in the past year will take place on Monday, Sept. 18.

Under open skies, from noon to 1 p.m., the memorial will fill the grassy area around the flagpole west of California Hall.

Chancellor Carol Christ will speak, and musical selections will honor the lives of those lost. The names of those being remembered — students, staff and faculty — will be read. All are invited to attend, and to bring a flower, ribbon or other token to place at the memorial site.

Those to be remembered are listed below; the list will be updated shortly before the memorial to make sure it is inclusive. If a person has been inadvertently omitted, please contact memorial organizers at campusmemorial@berkeley.edu . The names of people remembered at last fall’s ceremony are listed here .
