Letter: Late COGS representative remembered for passion, love for humanity

Dear Spartan Family,

The sky over Michigan State University became a bit dimmer Wednesday as we mourn the sudden death of fellow graduate student in Chicano/Latino Studies and Curriculum, Instruction and Teacher Education, Max Monroy-Miller.

The loss of any Spartan is difficult but a sudden loss is increasingly more troublesome.

Max served as the CITE Representative for the Council of Graduate Students; his passion for justice and love for humanity were evident in all he did. Max lived his life out loud and embodied the true essence of what it means to be a HUMANitarian. As Spartans we are a family, we support each other and stand together during difficult times. This is a time when the collective spirit, energy and the very essence of what makes us Spartans is being called upon.

Today let’s breathe a collective breath and send our positive thoughts to the family of Max Monroy-Miller, his friends, classmates, instructors and those of us who were fortunate enough to cross his path. As the light for one Spartan burned out too soon, let our collective light shine and guide Max safely home.

Rest in Peace Max – henceforth and forever more a SPARTAN

Solidarity Forever,

The Executive Board of the Council of Graduate Students
