SU mourns loss of beloved German scholar, teacher
Outside Gerlinde Ulm Sanford’s office in H.B. Crouse Hall is a small altar adorned with reminders of one of Syracuse University’s most beloved professors: a copy of Goethe’s “Faust,” photos and postcards, several origami balls, flowers and dried fruit and leaves.

Friend and colleague Karl Solibakke suspects that the conflagration was not far from Sanford’s mind, even up until her death on Tuesday, April 27, at age 70.
