Thomas G. Vinci, Ed.D., UGE ’49, professor emeritus and associate dean emeritus at the Graduate School of Education (GSE), died on Nov. 24 at the age of 93.
“My dad considered Fordham his second home and counted many of his colleagues there among his best friends,” said his son Tom Vinci, FCRH ’73, LAW ’77.
“He cherished his decades-long association with such a wonderful institution.”
Vinci joined the Fordham family as an undergraduate at the School of Education, where he earned a B.S. in 1949.
