The Ithaca College community lost a former longtime staff member, Terry Beckley, who passed away on August 29, 2013. Terry started at IC in Alumni Relations in 1990, and moved to the Gerontology Institute in 1994, where he had several different positions, including that of Outreach Coordinator. He retired from the ICGI and from IC in September 2006. Terry made many significant contributions to IC and the Gerontology Institute in his years here, and he will be missed by those who knew him. He was creative, fun-loving, and very committed to improving the lives of older people and their caregivers, and he used those gifts to help shape the Gerontology Institute’s academic and outreach programs. Here is his obituary, as it appeared in the September 2nd Ithaca Journal.

It's easier than ever to survey students and alumni about their experiences at IC. This may be progress, but it means that our students and alumni are being surveyed more than ever and are suffering from serious survey respondent fatigue. When there are too many survey requests in their in-boxes, people simply stop participating, our response rates drop, and none of us gets the information we need.
