With deep sadness we announce the sudden passing of our colleague Professor Everett Rice. Everett served our campus as an instructor of art history since January of 1991, sharing his unrelenting enthusiasm and love of art with our students. He was always ready in an instant to serve as an art museum guide to so many of our campus visitors. We’ll see and hear a bit of Everett in the masterpieces that surround us in Madrid for decades to come. |
