Dear Colleagues,

I share with you sad news we received from Dean Brett Peters in the College of Engineering and Applied Science:

Mike Krauski, Director of Corporate Relations in the College of Engineering and Applied Science, passed away on Monday. He had been with UWM since 2009, and was the first person to hold the Corporate Relations position in the College.

Dean Peters, in a message to CEAS, described Mike as “a beloved part of this college”, who “made numerous, valuable contributions to our research and education endeavors”, and who was “extremely caring and always striving to help all who crossed paths with him”. To read more about Mike, visit: https://uwm.edu/news/services-set-oct-29-michael-krauski/. His obituary will be posted in this Sunday’s Journal Sentinel.

Services will be held on Saturday, October 29 at St. Jerome’s Catholic Church (995 S. Silver Lake St., Oconomowoc) with visitation from 10 a.m.-1 p.m., followed by a Mass of Christian Burial.

Our condolences to Mike’s family and the many others whose lives he touched.

Take care,
Johannes

Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs
