We are deeply saddened to share news regarding the passing of Laurence Coderre, Associate Professor of Chinese Literature at New York University and a distinguished alumna of the Berkeley community.

Professor Coderre earned her Ph.D. from the Department of East Asian Languages & Cultures at UC Berkeley in 2015, where she studied under the direction of Professor Andrew Jones. A brilliant scholar and a valued member of our extended community, her loss is felt deeply by colleagues and former classmates alike.
