Every year, RIT presents awards to select students who represent specific, former faculty members who made a significant impact on RIT and it’s community of students and faculty. Last week, I was extremely glad to see that Garret Voorhees was awarded the first Heinz Klinkon award.
Heinz Klinkon: Man, Myth, Legend
The man who’s constantly referred to for his great stories that he tells or creates has passed. He pushed more than anyone else to generate new ideas and to think about the work you do and to “GO! Go out and do it!”. He taught us more than we know. He will truly be missed, but never forgotten.
