Dear Drew Community:

As a reminder, please join us tonight, Saturday, May 8, 2021 at 7:00 p.m. EDT for our Community Gathering in Remembrance of Ajay Sah. The recorded gathering will be released on our Drew Theological Chapel YouTube Channel. On-campus CLA students have been invited by the CLA Student Government to write letters to Ajay’s family in the Ehinger Center directly after the recorded remembrance ends this evening.

We were notified that the puja for Ajay will be on Monday, May 10, 2021. You can find the announcement here. This will be livestreamed; those wishing to pay respects in person may do so at 9:15 a.m. and the puja will begin at 9:30 a.m. These will take place at the Somerset Hills Memorial Park Crematory, 95 Mt. Airy Road, Basking Ridge, NJ 07920. Some important details are pasted below:

• Only a limited number of already invited guests will be able to attend inside due to COVID-19 restrictions. However, prior to the casket being brought inside the chapel, guests may pay their respects while outside beginning at 9:15 a.m., and may place a single flower on his casket if they wish.

• The funeral puja for Ajay will begin at 9:30 a.m. and take place inside the Chapel at Somerset Hills Crematory. The ritual will be live-streamed for those who remain outside or who are viewing from home. Please note you should be prepared to livestream outside on your own device. If congregating outside, please do not do so in large groups and kindly obey all COVID-19 safety measures.

• The livestream will begin at approximately 9:30 a.m. on Monday, May 10, 2021, and is expected to go until 11:00 a.m.

Thank you again for all of your thoughts and prayers for Ajay’s family and friends.

Dear Drew Community:

It is with great sadness that I write to inform you of the passing of Ajay Sah C’22, which I learned about earlier today from the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office. You can find their statement here.

We know that this news is difficult to process. Ajay was a very talented student, known by all on campus for his broad smile, eagerness to assist anyone and dedication to his friends. His absence this semester has been felt by us all, and I know that we all prayed for a different outcome. I ask that you continue to keep his family and friends in your thoughts and prayers.

Beyond Drew, Ajay was known by many families in the Borough of Madison, and they join our campus community in grieving. To honor his passing, Madison Mayor Robert Conley has ordered flags to fly at half-mast.

The Center for Counseling and Psychological Services is meeting with many members of the community and are offering daily community support drop-in sessions to process and support one another. Please keep an eye out in Drew Today and email for locations and drop in time. For other resources and support, please email counseling@drew.edu. Faculty and staff are encouraged to utilize the university’s EAP resources for counseling support.

President Schwarz and Provost Lakin join me in expressing our deep sympathies to everyone who loved Ajay. We will provide you with information when it becomes available about a time of remembrance for Ajay.

Sincerely,

Frank Merckx

Vice President of Enrollment Management and Student Life

Members of the Drew community,

I write to you today to again thank you all for continuing to work, in so many ways, to bring Ajay Sah home—from connecting with the media; translating, sharing, and posting fliers; and continuing to converse with law enforcement and private investigators who have been retained to assist in the search. I am grateful for all these efforts and for our caring community of students, faculty, staff, and alumni.

I want to also take this opportunity to let you know about a development. The Madison Police Department informed us late this afternoon that additional surveillance video has been discovered; the video places Ajay near the Brooklyn Bridge around 5 a.m. on Wednesday, January 20, 2021. This information was shared with his family first, so you may have already learned about this development on social media that is maintained by Ajay’s family and friends. Their independent pages can be found on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram; while Drew is not monitoring these sites, you may find their collected information and resources helpful. Per standard practice, these details have also been added to public databases for missing persons.

If you know anything that could assist in the investigation, please contact Detective Ryan Dunn of the Madison Police Department at 973-593-3000 or dunnr@rosenet.org. Please do not call to request updates; they are not able to share information regarding an ongoing investigation, and responding to such calls takes valuable resources from the investigative work.

The Center for Counseling and Psychological Services is offering community support drop-in sessions to process and support one another. There will be sessions on Thursday and Friday from 2 to 3 p.m. Look in Drew Today for Zoom links. Thank you for continuing to assist and support each other at this difficult time for our community.

Sincerely,
Frank Merckx
Vice President of Enrollment Management and Student Life

Dear members of the Drew community,

Due to the ongoing winter weather expected through tomorrow, the Drew University campus will remain closed to non-residential students and non-essential employees on Friday, February 19.

Students should expect their classes to meet virtually; if this is not normally how you attend your classes, more information will be shared directly by your professors.

Non-essential employees will continue conducting business operations virtually.

Dining facilities will be open on their normal schedule. Should these be adjusted, an announcement will be sent directly to residents from the Office of Residence Life.

Thank you for your cooperation. Please be safe!

Members of the Drew community,

I write to you today to again thank you for your continued work to find Ajay Sah. Our caring Drew community—students, faculty, staff, and alumni—remains actively engaged with law enforcement in our effort to bring Ajay home. University staff and administration continue to be in routine contact with the Madison Police Department and the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office, and we are thankful for their sustained efforts.

If you know anything that could assist in the investigation, please contact Detective Ryan Dunn of the Madison Police Department at 973-593-3000 or dunnr@rosenet.org. Please do not call to  request updates; they are not able to share information regarding an ongoing investigation, and responding to such calls takes valuable resources from the investigative work.

Ajay was last known to be on our campus three weeks ago. The longer Ajay remains away from us, the more questions and grief we may have. While there are nearly 30 news media stories covering Ajay’s disappearance, it is important that we continue spreading the word on social media. Hopefully these efforts will yield valuable information to aid in the search. For this reason, Ajay’s family and friends have created independent pages on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. While Drew is not monitoring these sites, you may find their collected information and resources helpful.

I will keep you informed as there is information to be shared.

Sincerely,
Frank Merckx

Members of the Drew community,

I write to you today to again thank you for your continued work to find Ajay Sah. Our caring Drew community—students, faculty, staff, and alumni—remains actively engaged with law enforcement in our effort to bring Ajay home. Drew is grateful for your steadfast endeavors, from sharing the missing person poster on social media, in local neighborhoods, and within the city, to consoling friends who are exhausted from worry.

It is very painful when someone is missing from our lives, and Ajay’s absence is mixed with uncertainty. While family, friends, law enforcement agencies, Drew officials, and the greater Drew community continue their efforts, we recognize that many in our community are hurting. Chaplain Tanya Linn Bennett and Laura Arthur, director of International Students and Scholars Services, are working with other staff and students to create a “Circle of Hope” service next week. This time together is intended to allow our community to express our individual and collective love for Ajay. Once times are finalized, we will announce details to the campus community.

I continue to urge you to contact Detective Ryan Dunn of the Madison Police department at 973-593-3000 or dunnr@rosenet.org if you know anything that could assist in the investigation. In addition to their investigative work, authorities continue to respond to all tips and reports.

I’m again attaching the Madison PD’s missing person flyer about Ajay. Feel free to continue spreading the word. Those in the tristate area, especially New York City, may wish to print and post the flyer in common locations near your homes. Again, we will keep you informed as shareable information becomes known.

Sincerely,
Frank Merckx
Vice President of Enrollment Management and Student Life

Members of the Drew community,

Thank you for the outpouring of support around our combined effort to locate Ajay Sah—collectively Drew’s social media posts have been shared more than 1,750 times at the time of this writing, and I know many of your own posts have also been widely shared. This alone is a true testament to our helpful and caring community at Drew.

As we mentioned in our email notice to the community, Ajay’s last contact with friends was the evening of Tuesday, January 19, 2021. Drew administration learned of the situation on the evening of Thursday, January 21, 2021. We have been working in earnest with the authorities in charge of this investigation, as well as with Ajay’s brother and friends, to find him.

One of the most challenging aspects of having a loved one missing is the feeling of the unknown. It is important for you to know that many law enforcement agencies in New Jersey and New York are using their shared resources to bring him home. The greater Drew community, our families and alumni are actively offering assistance, from exercising work connections to sharing a social media post. Both the Embassy of Nepal and the Consulate General of Nepal are working with the State Department and other agencies. We are grateful for all of these efforts and for the continuing support.

Ajay’s photo and information were entered into the FBI National Crime Information Center, a primary method to increase law enforcement officials’ awareness of missing persons. Area hospitals and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement were notified of the search; as of this notice, nothing has been generated from these contacts. Ajay was last sighted exiting a NJ Transit train in New York Penn Station. NYPD, the MTA, New York Port Authority and NJ Transit are working with Madison Police to ascertain where Ajay was headed from Penn Station.

I urge you to contact Detective Ryan Dunn of the Madison Police department at 973-593-3000 or dunnr@rosenet.org—or any member of the Campus Life and Student Affairs staff—if you know anything that could assist in the investigation. Authorities have responded to all tips and reports so far.

This is a difficult time for the Drew community. The Center for Counseling and Psychological Services is offering daily community support drop-in sessions to process and support one another. These links will be shared in Drew Today. For other resources and support, please email counseling@drew.edu. Should they be needed, faculty and staff are encouraged to utilize the university’s EAP resources for counseling support.

Attached is the Madison PD’s missing person flyer about Ajay. Feel free to continue spreading the word. Those in the tristate area, especially New York City, may wish to print and post the flyer in common locations near your homes. Again, we will keep you informed as shareable information becomes known.

Sincerely,
Frank Merckx
Vice President of Enrollment Management and Student Life

Members of the Drew community,

On the evening of Thursday, January 21, 2021, members of Campus Life and Student Affairs were informed that Ajay Sah, a junior in the College of Liberal Arts and a resident assistant, had been out of contact since the evening of Tuesday, January 19, 2021. Since then, our staff have been working with the Madison Police Department, as well as Ajay’s brother and friends, to locate Ajay. Efforts have been unsuccessful so far.

All information known to Drew, his friends and brother has been forwarded to local authorities. In accordance with their protocol, Madison PD has contacted local hospitals and is working with regional law enforcement including the Morris County Prosecutor’s Office, NJ Transit Police and NYPD, among others. If you have information that could aid in this effort, please reply to this email or reach out to any member of the Campus Life and Student Affairs staff.

If you are experiencing personal anxiety, emotional distress or grief, Drew provides resources to assist, including those of our Center for Counseling and Psychological Services. Please do not hesitate to reach out.

As shareable information becomes available we will pass it along. Ajay is an important and well known member of our community and we are working toward and hopeful for his safe return to Drew.

Sincerely,
Frank Merckx
Vice President of Enrollment Management and Student Life

Dear campus community,

Thank you for your cooperation as we manage the aftermath of last evening’s storm.

Please use caution, especially after night falls, if you are walking on campus. You are advised to stay on pathways and roads as there is still a risk from leaning trees and hanging branches, and do not walk in the Arboretum, Hepburn Woods and any partitioned areas.

Planned activities will resume as scheduled beginning Saturday morning, Nov. 2. The library and Simon Forum will be open.

Clean-up efforts—including active tree removal—will continue throughout the weekend and into next week, with the removal of any trees on vehicles as a top priority.

Initial Alert, Friday, Nov. 1, 2019

Dear members of the Drew community,

The storm that impacted Drew in the early morning hours of today also impacted some of the surrounding roads to campus. Many of our faculty, staff and commuting students are also dealing with damage within their own neighborhoods.

In order to provide access for workers to remove downed trees and reduce the impact that student and employee travel will have on Madison and the campus, Drew University classes are canceled and all administrative offices are closed for today, Friday, November 1. Essential employees will be notified by their supervisor to report to the campus.

Classes that are scheduled to meet online will continue to do so.

Those on campus please remain in residence halls until further notice. Those not on campus, please do not come to campus until further notice.

When cleared to move around the campus, we ask that you observe and respect the areas that are blocked due to downed trees and wires by limiting your travel around campus. Please be aware that winds throughout the day may bring down additional limbs or trees. Please refrain from entering the Arboretum and Hepburn Woods.

The Commons, Starbucks, and the EC will be open on a normal schedule. Peet’s will be closed.

If there is damage to your vehicle, please contact Campus Safety at 973-408-3379 so that they may assist in filing a report with the Madison Police Department.

Updates will be found at this site.

Thank you for your cooperation in accord with today’s emergency notification. The safety of our campus community is our top priority.

Earlier this morning, out of an abundance of caution, we put a shelter in place in effect because we received an unverified report that a community member was in possession of a firearm on campus.

Because of the nature of the report, we immediately contacted the Madison Police Department to assist Drew Campus Safety in an investigation. 

An investigation was performed, and it was determined that there was no threat to the Drew or surrounding communities.

As we noted in the final emergency notification, all activities have resumed as normal. 

Jim Mandala, director of counseling, is available to offer services to any community member who may have been impacted emotionally by today’s event. He may be reached at 973-408-3398 and counseling@drew.edu.

An event like today’s is extremely rare on our safe campus. But when the need arises, as it did today, we act accordingly. Fortunately in this case there was no threat.

Thank you again.

All clear. The shelter in place has been lifted. There is no threat. A community message will follow. Resume activities as normal.

Remain sheltered in place. There is no active threat. An ongoing investigation is being conducted. If you’re off campus, please stay off until further notice.

We have activated a shelter in place. Madison PD is on campus conducting an investigation.

Stay in your location until you receive a follow-up message.
