Dear MCAD Community,
It is with great sadness that I am sharing the passing of a recent graduate, Grace Niskanen. Grace graduated in May 2026 with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Product and Furniture Design. Her creative talents far exceeded her major, which included painting and music. Grace was a creative collaborator, entrepreneur, and close friend to so many.

By now many of you already know that Alicia Kuri Alamillo has left her position as Student Life Specialist. Alicia was in Student Affairs for two years and did tremendous work to support MCAD's international students and students who study off campus. She brought creativity and empathy to everything she did and was deeply committed to making Student Affairs and the MCAD community a better place.
