ASUI and the Division of Student Affairs announced that they will host an inaugural Vandal Remembrance Ceremony on Friday, May 2 at noon. 

Promised to be a solemn, heartfelt event, the ceremony will be dedicated to the memory of all the students who have passed away while enrolled at the University of Idaho. 

The ceremony will be held at the Vandal Healing Garden and Memorial next to the Physical Education Building.  

“Together, we will read the names of those we have lost, lifting their memories in unity and remembering them as Forever Vandals,” the announcement said.  

The ceremony is open to students, employees, alumni and the public. 

“Let us gather to honor their legacy and to remind one another that, while life is fragile, the Vandal Family is strong, and memory endures,” the announcement said.
