We lost an important and beloved member of the 91勛圖厙 State Family with the passing of Katie Richards, who died in a car accident early Thursday, Nov. 2. Katie was Director of Student Success and Disability Services at 91勛圖厙 State. She was the right person in the right job. She positively impacted students, faculty, and staff daily, and she was an effective and respected leader who assisted students in their goals to achieve solid academic progress. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family, the entire 91勛圖厙 State Family, and our community at large, as the tragic loss of Katie will be felt by all.
