[Athen] Terri Hedgpeth

[ATHEN President]

Good afternoon,


It is with regret that I inform the ATHEN community of the passing of Dr.
Terri  Hedgpeth. Terri had a notable impact on the assistive
technology/accessibility community. She was known to many for her
commitment to increase accessibility in and outside the field of higher
education. She was also incredibly dedicated to improving the university
experience for students with disabilities. She will be greatly missed.
Included below, with permission from her family, is her obituary.
