Sad News for the Ithaca College Community

By Nicole Eversley Bradwell, January 23, 2024

Gerald "Jerry" Lee Smith (1944-2024)

It is with a heavy heart that I share news of the passing of a dear friend and colleague, Jerry Smith. An integral part of the Admission team for 23 years (1997-2020), Jerry supported thousands of prospective students and their families in the college search process. Jerry was a kind and generous colleague to many people on campus. We remember his quick sense of humor and welcoming smile. We are better for having shared space with Jerry.
