IN MEMORIAM Remembering Lilly Kishore ’21 and Samantha Sasenarine ’21 This year, the Skidmore community lost two beloved members of the Class of 2021, Lilly Kishore and Samantha Sasenarine. More than 100 members of the Skidmore community — from lacrosse teammates to President Marc Conner — gave blood during a Red Cross blood drive in memory of Lilly Kishore ’21 on Sept. 24. Friends, fellow student-athletes, faculty, staff, and College leaders later gathered around a forsythia planted in her memory outside Williamson Sports Center. A psychology major, she died June 23. On May 17, President Conner joined friends, family, and professors of Samantha Sasenarine ’21 to plant a red maple in her memory. Sasenarine, an English major and educational studies minor, was co-editor of the Skidmore News opinion section and president of the West Indian Student Association. An advocate for inclusivity and diversity, she died Feb. 5.
