[Uosenateexec] Erick Njue community vigil

[Dyana Mason]

Senate Colleagues,
Many of you are aware that UO doctoral student in Special Education, Erick Njue, was killed after being struck by a car while biking last weekend.

There is a community vigil tomorrow from 4-9 pm, which starts at Spencer View Apartments and ends at Gerlinger Lounge.  Please see the attached flyer. Thanks to Dean Jimmy Howard for sending this along.

Also, some faculty and GEs have been circulating a GoFundMe<https://www.gofundme.com/f/bring-erick-home-to-kenya-for-a-final-farewell?attribution_id=sl:54a19496-0f87-42de-9676-e17b1fe8452d&ts=1769536808&utm_campaign=pd_ss_icons&utm_content=amp17_ta&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link> <https://www.gofundme.com/f/bring-erick-home-to-kenya-for-a-final-farewell?attribution_id=sl:54a19496-0f87-42de-9676-e17b1fe8452d&ts=1769536808&utm_campaign=pd_ss_icons&utm_content=amp17_ta&utm_medium=customer&utm_source=copy_link> for Erick's family to help with repatriation of his body back to Kenya and burial.

Feel free to share this information with others who may be interested.
