Ethan Sulik Doty Obituary, Death – The Senior Vice President of RIT extends his deepest condolences and offers his full support in this difficult time. Dr. Sandra (Sandy) Johnson, the Senior Vice President for Student Affairs at the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT), reached out to the community of the campus in a letter that was solemn and gut-wrenching to notify the untimely death of a much-loved member, Ethan Sulik-Doty.

The letter was sent to the community to inform them of the passing. The unfortunate event, which took place as a result of a collision involving a motor vehicle, has left the RIT family in a state of disbelief and profound mourning. Ethan Sulik-Doty, who has been a part of the RIT community since the fall of 2019, was originally from Whiting, Vermont.  He was enrolled in the Kate Gleason College of Engineering as a BS/MS student, where he was working for a master’s degree in electrical engineering.

During this incomprehensibly difficult moment, Dr. Johnson offered comfort and assistance to Ethan’s family and conveyed the deepest condolences of the university to them on behalf of the institution. Although it is difficult to put into words the feelings of grief and sorrow that result from such a profound loss, the purpose of this letter is to serve as a reminder that the RIT community is available to provide comfort, sympathy, and understanding to those who are affected by the tragedy.

It also acknowledges the circumstances surrounding the loss. It emphasizes the significance of leaning on one other during these challenging times, with the realization that they have a shared human experience that can bring forth feelings of empathy and sympathy for one another as a result. Dr. Johnson encourages all members of the school community, including students, teachers, and staff, to reach out to their personal support networks outside of the university, as it can be beneficial to the healing process to discuss their emotions and concerns with reliable people.
