Dear Members of the Skidmore Community,

Please join us Tuesday evening March 22 at 7 p.m. as we come together to celebrate the life of first-year student Willem "Will" Golden, who passed away on Saturday.

In an effort to support each other and send our thoughts and prayers to Will's family, we will gather as a community in Ladd Hall in the Arthur Zankel Music Center and end the evening with a candlelight vigil outdoors in the Thomas Amphitheater. If necessary, overflow accommodations will be available.

The Murray-Aikins Dining Hall will be open Tuesday before and after the event at no cost to our students.

I know this is a very difficult time for everyone on our campus, and I hope this gathering provides some comfort to our students, families, and our community. Please show your Skidmore pride by wearing our school colors—green and yellow—to our gathering.
