“I was saddened to hear the tragic news about Andrew Mapley,” says SU Chancellor and President Nancy Cantor. “It is especially difficult to lose someone who is so young and vibrant. Our thoughts are with Andrew’s family and friends, and the School of Information Studies community.”
“I and the entire iSchool are deeply saddened by the tragic death of our student Andrew. Our hearts and prayers go out to the Mapley family and Andrew’s longtime friends,” says School of Information Studies Interim Dean Elizabeth D.
