Honoring a Legacy of Excellence: Donation Drive (to Physics Dept.) in Memory of Prof. B.S.B. Karunaratne

Dear Colleagues, Alumni, Students, and Friends of the Physics Community,

We invite you to join us in paying tribute to the extraordinary life and contributions of the late Prof. B.S.B. Karunaratne, a pillar of the Physics Department whose passion for teaching, research, and mentorship inspired generations.

In conjunction with the commemoration ceremony on Nov. 14th, we are launching a limited-time special donation drive—every contribution, big or small, will be directed entirely to the Physics Department in Prof. Karunaratne’s memory.

Let us transform our grief into action. Let us ensure that his vision for accessible, innovative, and impactful physics education lives on.

“A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.” — Adapted from Henry Adams, in honor of Prof. Karunaratne

Together, let us build a future he would be proud of.

Alternatively, you may send us a check made payable to “UPAA-USA” and mail it to the UPAA-USA Treasurer at the following address. Please let us know your email address to send the Donation Receipt. Please make sure to add the memo “BSB”.
