SIUE Mourns Loss of CAS Student Jasmine Streater
The SIUE community is mourning the loss of senior social work student Jasmine Streater, of Chicago Heights, who was involved in a fatal car accident last weekend. She was 26.
A College of Arts and Sciences student, Streater was doing a practicum in the Center for Student Diversity and Inclusion. She is survived by her 2-year-old daughter. For those interested, a GoFundMe initiative has been created to support her daughter's future educational endeavors.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with Jasmine Streater’s daughter, family and friends,” said SIUE Chancellor Randy Pembrook. “Whenever an individual’s full potential isn’t realized, it is absolutely heartbreaking. She will be missed.”
Information regarding arrangements will be communicated as they become available. A complete obituary is not yet available.
