In Memoriam

‘A Loss that Reverberates’

On March 10, 2019, 24-year-old Samya Stumo ’15 was on her way to Uganda for her first assignment as a health care analyst when she and 156 other people died in a plane crash near Addis Ababa Bole International Airport in Ethiopia.

Stumo was working for ThinkWell at the time, a Washington, D.C., nonprofit working on improving health care in developing countries. It was a perfect fit. Stumo wrote that she was "passionate about resolving disconnects between policy and practice, making health care people-centered by nature, and inspired to impact change while rejecting the status quo in global health and development."

Her family wrote that she was focused on "revolutionizing global health, especially reducing obstacles for women. She cared most about treating all people and patients as human beings, particularly in the context of their culture, family, and individuality.”

The plane was full of people trying to make the world better. It's a loss that reverberates and affects a lot of people.

—Ralph Nader

"She dropped everything to help people. It's a tremendous loss not just for her and her family, but all the people she would have saved over the next 50 years," explained her great uncle, political activist Ralph Nader. “She was the kind of leader that we hoped to get from our young generation in our world.”

In the wake of her death, some of Stumo’s family members have testified on Capitol Hill, written articles, and worked hard to get the Boeing 737 MAX 8 plane grounded until it can be made safe. Nadia Milleron, Stumo’s mother, continues the fight: “More work must be done to ensure others won't face the same grief and loss that my family now copes with each day.”

Stumo’s family members have created the Samya Rose Stumo Memorial Initiative for Universal Quality Healthcare, which aims to find talented young leaders to extend Samya’s vision and mission for low- and middle-income countries, and areas to affect change focusing on human-centered health care. Young alumnae of UMass Amherst are encouraged to apply.

 


 

Honoring a Professor's Love of the Lab

Joan Langley ’72 didn’t think it would be so easy, but setting up an endowment at UMass to honor her husband turned out to be, well, almost natural.

Joan’s husband, UMass Physics Professor Kenneth Langley, died in March 2019. He began his 36-year career at UMass in 1966 when he moved to Amherst with his wife and their daughter Christine. “There were many new faculty that came about the same time, and so there was a very social aspect with the department at UMass—as well as professional. We were friends,” says Joan.

To honor Ken’s love of teaching and his dedication to laboratory research, Joan created the Professor Kenneth Langley and Joan Langley Research Fund for Future Physicists. The endowment will fund one or more undergraduate students conducting summer research in a physics lab on campus. The awards—available to rising sophomores, juniors, and seniors—will be presented at a department ceremony each spring. “What’s great about the endowment is that it’s not only about grades,” says Joan. “It’s about potential.”

Ken first studied physics at MIT where he graduated in 1958. He then received his PhD from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1966. In the late 1970s, Ken and fellow UMass Physics Professor Norman Ford cofounded Langley Ford Instruments—one of the earliest high-tech startup companies in Amherst. In the 1980s, the firm designed and built precision light-scattering instruments for use in industrial and academic research. In addition to other applications, these devices are used for blood analysis in hospitals and medical laboratories across the country.

“Our children and I wanted this endowment to support laboratory research,” says Joan. “That’s because Ken loved teaching in the lab. He loved doing things.” Of her experience creating the endowment, she smiles and says, “We are beyond thrilled to be a part of this. It feels good in so many ways. To know you are helping future generations of physicists doing something they love, just as Ken loved it, and if that helps change the world, all for the good.”

Chronicling Life's Changing Rhythms

Professor Emeritus Joel Martin Halpern, a cultural anthropologist best known for his six decades of study in the former Yugoslavia, died in July 2019 at the age of 90. Halpern was an adventurer who traveled throughout Europe, North America, and Asia for fieldwork and ethnographic research.

Halpern studied history at the University of Michigan and earned his PhD from Columbia University. For his doctoral study on the modernization of the Balkans, Halpern and his family lived with a local Serbian-speaking family in Orašac, where he and his then wife, anthropologist Barbara Kerewsky-Halpern, chronicled the rhythms of village life with a focus on the impact of the introduction of electricity and indoor plumbing and the exodus of young people to cities. His PhD dissertation was published as A Serbian Village and received the Clarke F. Ansley Award from Columbia University Press in 1956. Halpern’s research had staying power; in 1986, a Belgrade film crew made the documentary “The Halperns in Orašac,” in which Halpern and his wife reminisced with villagers about changes that had taken place over the 30 years since their original research. The film was shown to children in Serbia to help them understand their heritage.

Halpern, a prolific writer, launched his career as a junior foreign service officer in Southeast Asia and later as a consultant to the RAND Corporation. He was drawn to positions that allowed him to study customs and cultures of a wide variety of peoples and authored or coauthored dozens of books on the Balkans and Southeast Asia, focused particularly on the study of rural life and urbanization, the economy, ethnicity, and cultural change. He began teaching in 1958 at the University of California Los Angeles and was later recruited to join the faculty at UMass Amherst, where he taught from 1967 until his retirement in 1993.

While at UMass, Halpern studied Southeast Asian populations in New England and coauthored a book with his UMass colleague Lucy Nguyen Hong Nhiem—The Far East Comes Near—a collection of personal accounts of college students who were refugees from Cambodia, Laos, and Vietnam. Many of his papers are housed in the Special Collections and University Archives at UMass and in archives at the Smithsonian Institution.

Capturing the Boston Most Never Saw

David Akiba ’69, a photographer and teacher who urged students to use inquisitive eyes to create art, died in August 2019 at the age of 78.

“On countless walks through parts of Boston many never visit, David Akiba developed a singular vision of the city that he captured in decades of photographs,” begins a Boston Globe remembrance.

In his hunt for photographs of Boston and its residents, Akiba visited urban wastelands, railroad yards, and razed buildings. He captured beauty in mannequins stored in a factory, commuters at a train station, ballet dancers, and a quiet coffee shop on a Sunday morning. His work has been exhibited at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, the Library of Congress, the Fogg Art Museum at Harvard University, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Boston Public Library, among others.

Akiba grew up in the working-class neighborhood of Winthrop, Massachusetts, and studied political science at UMass Amherst. His childhood passion for photography grew into a mastery of the art form.

A popular photography teacher, Akiba influenced many students enrolled in Boston-based colleges, including Emerson College and Babson College. According to the Boston Globe, he once told his students, “You can never exhaust the possibilities of the landscape. There are so many different kinds of woods, trees, and shrubs. It’s like Monet in his garden.”
