Our dear friend and colleague Dr. Eric Sullivan passed away on Friday, Jan. 13, 2023 after a courageous battle with glioblastoma. Eric started teaching at Carroll in the Department of Mathematics, Engineering, Computer Science, and Physics in 2013. He was a treasured teacher, scholar, and colleague. Eric accomplished much in his time at Carroll. He was instrumental in the development of the Data Science program, he wrote and published a mathematics textbook, he championed the Student Undergraduate Research Festival (SURF), and he received the Carroll College Outstanding Teaching Award in May of 2022. He also provided public education opportunities through popular lectures and debates. See memories of Dr. Sullivan here.
Memorial Ceremony - Sunday, January 22
Please join Eric's family to celebrate a life well lived on Sunday, Jan. 22, 2023 at 3:00 pm in the All Saints Hall of the Lower Campus Center.
The memorial ceremony will be about 30 minutes long followed by ample time for family and friends to socialize and share memories of Eric with one another. There will be several types of beverages (including some of Eric's favorites) and light hors d'oeuvres.
All are welcome. The celebration will be live-streamed and recorded, and links will be shared as we get closer to Sunday's celebration. Instead of flowers, please consider a donation to the Dr. Eric Sullivan Data Science Fund(link is external) that will honor Eric’s legacy.
