A three-manual, 14-rank instrument was completed by Randall Dyer & Associates, Inc., of Jefferson City, Tennessee, in time for the beginning of the academic year. The organ is named in memory of Stephanie Yen-Mun Liem Azar (Curtis, Organ ‘08) who died unexpectedly on July 19, 2013 while attending Columbia University Medical School in New York. She was 26 years old.
