President's Statement on Death of Alumnus Michael Graves
"The University of Cincinnati has lost a distinguished alumnus and a member of our community who added beauty to the world in a way no one other than Michael Graves could. He dared to take risks and to connect with people through his postmodern creations. We are fortunate that one of those unique works, the Engineering Research Center, sits in a prominent place on our campus. His buildings, his everyday products, and in his final years, his efforts to design health care equipment and furniture in new ways to help those with disabilities, leave an amazing legacy that will inspire generations to come. To his family, friends and loved ones, we express our deep sympathy."
