Colleagues:
I am very sorry to inform you that Dr. Tim Carmichael, Associate Professor of History and Director of African Studies, has died.
As some of you know, Tim had stage 4, terminal pancreatic cancer. His death was the result of multiple organ failure, following septic shock. Tim’s spouse and colleague, Dr. Noelle Zeiner-Carmichael, Professor of Classics, was with Tim at the end.
