The St. Thomas Aquinas College community is profoundly saddened by the loss of Dr. Meghan De Witt, a beloved professor, mentor, colleague, and friend.
Meghan cared deeply for her students and faculty colleagues, and the Honors Program held a special place in her heart. Through her teaching, mentorship, and friendship, she touched so many lives across our College community.
On Saturday, September 5, her family will hold a memorial service at the Church of the Latter Day Saints at 442 New Hempstead Rd, New City, NY. (Details to follow.) In the fall semester, the members of Meghan's STAC family will plan a memorial service to be held on campus.
Among the ways the College will honor Meghan’s life and contributions, a scholarship has been established in her name. The family welcomes contributions to the Dr. Meghan De Witt Memorial Scholarship Fund as a lasting tribute to Meghan's life, her love of teaching, and the profound difference she made in the lives of others: stac.edu/MD
Please keep Meghan’s family and friends — and her students and faculty colleagues — in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. We were blessed to have Meghan in our lives, and we will miss her deeply.
