Remembering Michael Benedikt

Saturday Oct. 25, 2025 , 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
A smiling older man with glasses and a gray beard gestures with both hands while standing indoors. He is wearing a blue shirt, and there are blurred people in the background.

Please join us in celebrating the life and legacy of Professor Michael Benedikt, who served the School of Architecture community for nearly 50 years.

At this memorial, hosted by the School of Architecture and Benedikt’s family, friends and colleagues will reflect upon Professor Benedikt’s life and the profound impact he had on generations of School of Architecture students, faculty, and alumni, as well as the field at large. The program will include comments from several current School of Architecture faculty members, members of Michael’s family, as well as former students and colleagues. A reception will follow the program.
