We share our messages and memories in remembrance of our late Founding President, Tosun Terzioğlu.
Sabancı University Founding Board of Trustees Chair Güler Sabancı's Message after Professor Tosun Terzioğlu
Tosun Bey was the founding president of our university for 12 years, during which he made unforgettable contributions to shape us into a global university that makes a difference in Turkish higher education, leading us to a better future.
He saw science, learning and teaching above everything else in life. His academic achievements were underscored by his humble personality, making him a truly dedicated volunteer of education. We are deeply shaken by his loss and dismayed at the passing of such a precious personality.
It was a pleasure to work alongside a person with unwavering love and dedication to our university. I wish Tosun Terzioğlu eternal peace, and I would like to offer my condolences to his family, friends and the Sabancı community.
