Grazing for lunch

Ilya Blay ’07 helps himself to a selection of fruit at the Lunch on the Quad yesterday.
Students, faculty and administration were invited to dine and relax in honor of the first day of classes as part of this year’s reorganized Welcome Weekend, a four-day, five-night program that provides non-alcholic entertainment to Cornell students of all years entering or returning to Cornell.
“We hope this picnic will help bridge the gap between students and staff. Having lunch with professors and being able to interact outside of a classroom is really important,” said Lisa Zhang, vice president of event management.
Cornell Dining catered the event.
