The Michigan Daily reports that Beth Diamond, an assistant professor in the School of Natural Resources and Environment, was integral in the Heidelberg Project in Detroit and other community projects in the city.

“Beth was always using art as a means of inspiring and effecting change and bringing communities together,” fellow U-M professor Stan Jones told the Daily.

A memorial ceremony will be held at 3:30 p.m. Thursday in the Dana Building.
