Despite infrastructure faults, Low Rise 6 and 7 Hall Councils are dedicated to fostering a safe, tight-knit community that most residents appreciate.
Kayla Matos (D-First Ward) currently serves as the deputy director for Southside Community Center and is running for the First Ward’s four-year seat on the Common Council.
With a passion for serving the community, Natalia Urbas ’23 was awarded a $15,000 grant in honor of late President John F. Kennedy’s commitment to public service.
The Office of Engagement Initiatives and the Public Service Center will merge into one center to streamline opportunities for students and community members.
“Being able to share with the C.U. community is critical to [students’] own learning, so it is only right that our office provides them with the platform to present, network and most importantly critically reflect on their engaged learning experience,” Jackson-Smarr said.
“I feel like at Cornell we talk so much about finance and law and more traditional fields, and the showcase really works to speak truth to and give light to work that’s outside of that realm but is just as important,” Hickmon said.
