It is with great sadness that the faculty and staff of the Department of Performing and Fine Arts announce the passing of our colleague, Evangelista “Eva” Goris, at the age of 53 (December 27, 1973 – September 20, 2026). For the past 13 years, Eva served the department with distinction as a College Assistant. Giving, kind, and cheerful, Eva approached her work with dedication and a graceful presence that brought warmth to all who worked with her. She will be deeply missed by her colleagues, students, and friends. A Funeral Mass was held on September 29 at St. Mary’s Church on the Lower East Side of Manhattan, followed by her burial at Queen of Peace Cemetery in Westbury, NY. With sympathy, Tom Marion Associate Professor of Theatre Chair, Department of Performing and Fine Arts Coordinator of Theatre Arts
