"The entire University at Albany community mourns the loss of a great advocate, philanthropist, and educator. Alice Green’s name has long been synonymous with the fight for justice and equity in the Capital Region and beyond. She will be remembered as a tireless advocate for justice for people in marginalized communities and a believer in the transformational power of education. Alice and her husband, Charles Touhey, established a program at UAlbany to diversify the teaching and counseling professions in our region and Alice regularly spoke during New York State Writers Institute events and to UAlbany students. In 2022, UAlbany recognized Alice’s commitment to social justice and advocacy and her ongoing service to underserved communities by naming her a Citizen Laureate of the university."
“Alice was a great friend and trusted advisor to me personally, and someone who made the world fairer and more just. She leaves us far too soon, but her incredible legacy lives on. We are so proud to count her among our Great Dane family."
