Remembering Cody van Heerden at Artemis Gallery
NORTHEAST HARBOR—The late Cody van Heerden was a pillar of the College of the Atlantic community. She joined the Board of Trustees in 2005, and in 2017 she completed an M.Phil in human ecology with a focus on institutional economics. Along the way, Cody mentored students, hosted events, and shared her insights with faculty and staff.
In 2019, the college announced a new faculty chair, the Cody van Heerden Chair in Economics & Quantitative Social Sciences, in her honor. The chair was held by professor Davis Taylor until his retirement, and is now held by professor Hien Nguyen.
Artemis Gallery was founded in 2012 by Cody and Deirdre Swords. We're grateful to Deirdre and Artemis for honoring Cody and supporting the college with this fantastic art show. Please stop by if you are on the island.
