Last night, a Johns Hopkins University junior, Miriam Frankl, was killed after being hit by a truck in front of her apartment building. She was hit around 3:20 in the afternoon, at which point she was transported to Shock Trauma and put on life support until her family could be there. She passed at approximately 2:30 am. She was a sister of Alpha Phi sorority. This incident has devastated the Greek Community, where Miriam was well-known and loved. I remember rushing her when I was a sophomore, and she was a close friend of several of my sisters. Her sisters and her boyfriend, a Sigma Phi Epsilon, are receiving an outpouring of support from the Greeks. Miriam was on her way to attend a charity cook-off as part of Greek Week. The rest of Greek Week has been cancelled, which the exception of a tailgate today which has been converted into more of a show of support for Alpha Phi. All attendees have been asked to wear red.
My prayers and deepest condolences to Miriam's friends, families and sisters. She was a truly amazing young women and will be sorely missed. Please send your thoughts and prayers to the women of Alpha Phi, particulrly Zeta Omicron chapter.
Here are a few news articles. The driver is still at large.
