I learned today from my friend on Facebook, Mahlia Joyce
that my dear friend Mitch Alexander has passed away from a heart attack… I am
so sad and my heart and prayers go out to his family and friends. Mitch was a
wonderful friend for many-many years. He was always good for a big hug, a huge
smile and a kind word.

Rest in peace Mitch...
We regret to inform the McDaniel community that Mitchell K.
Alexander, director of Event Services, passed away today, Feb. 19, following a
heart attack. He earned his bachelor’s degree in History with a minor in
Education from WMC in 1980 and worked in Student Affairs as a part-time Decker
Center building manager during the evenings and weekends. While an
undergraduate here, he was named to Who’s Who Among American College Students
and the recipient of the Lynn F. Gruber Leadership Award
After teaching middle school science for a year at Saint
Francis Academy in Baltimore, Mitchell returned to the College as assistant
director of College Activities. In 1986, he completed his master’s degree in
School Administration. He left for a promotion in 1988 and served as director
of Student Activities at Post College in Waterbury, Connecticut. He returned 16
months later to WMC as student activities director.
In a 1993 edition of the student newspaper, Mitchell was
described as having, “the whole campus in his hands.” His legacy is one of
empowering student groups to organize and create successful events for the
campus community. More recently, his campus knowledge was invaluable for his
expertise and guidance for event staging and set-ups.
He is survived by his wife Mildred Artis Alexander, class of
1981, and their two children, Blake and Paige.
Information regarding funeral services will be shared when
available.
