- ObituaryProtocol following the death of a member of the UT community In the event of the death of a (former) employee or student, there are various actions to be carried out by one or more colleagues. Below you will find a guideline for each situation, intended as a guidance because all cases are unique situations. In all cases, an obituary is written. The communication advisor of the concerned faculty/department can support in this process. More information on making an In Memoriam can be found below under the heading 'Guidelines for writing and distributing obituary messages and obituaries'. to REmember a person When a student or staff member dies, a memorial service can help to reflect on the loss together and to remember a person who has died. Managers, colleagues, and fellow students can consider whether such a meeting is appropriate. This offers the UT community the opportunity to say goodbye respectfully. If a commemoration is desired, it can occur on campus or at another location in consultation with the department
