Remembering MITES donor and advisor Lewis W. “Lew” Counts

MITES donor and advisory board member Lew Counts

MITES donor and advisory board member Lewis W. “Lew” Counts, MIT ’65, passed away on September 14, 2021, at the age of 80. Lew was a true MITES champion. Together with his wife, Connee, he embodied MITES’s values of community, diversity, and access. Lew never missed a chance to build community with students and instructors during final symposia and workshops, and advocated fiercely for increased diversity and access as an advisory board member.
