RIT provost emeritus and former vice president for Academic Affairs, Stanley McKenzie died Nov. 8 in Tucson, Ariz.
McKenzie served for 41 years in several roles at RIT until his retirement in 2011.
“Stan McKenzie is an RIT icon,” said RIT President Bill Destler. “As an administrator, he played a major role in the advancement of the university into the ranks of the nation’s largest and finest private universities. As an educator, he had the innate ability to impart his zest for learning to his students. He was a beloved member of the RIT family and will truly be missed.”
An on-campus memorial for McKenzie is being planned for a later date, and the RIT flag will be lowered to half-staff in his memory.
