Surrounded by balloons, streamers and tents, the fair featured various Cornell departments and performance groups.
“You have gained a fierce and tireless advocate for the mission of Cornell and for those who are committed to advancing it,” Philip J. Hanlon, the current president of University of Dartmouth, said.
The 20 research projects displayed at the Festival of Scholarship launched the inauguration of President Martha E. Pollack, celebrating the breadth of scholarship at Cornell.
The topic — “Universities and the Search for Truth” — was chosen by the president herself, who has highlighted it as the central theme of inquiry since her arrival on campus.
In the throes of an increasingly politicized and divided world, Martha E. Pollack will be sworn in Friday as the 14th president of Cornell.
As Cornell faces a pivotal moment with regards to its expansion within and beyond Ithaca, there are several issues that Pollack will have to address in her upcoming tenure.
Chants of “Not my president” rang throughout the Bernie Milton Pavilion on the Ithaca Commons.
On Friday morning, Cornell University celebrates the inauguration of its 13th president Elizabeth Garrett.
The Touchdown sculpture is dedicated in honor of CU’s beloved mascot and Cornell’s legendary football team. Watch newly inaugurated President Garrett unveil the statue.
Thousands of Cornellians gathered on the Ag Quad for a picnic following President Elizabeth Garrett’s inauguration on Friday to celebrate their new leader in a festive setting. The Big Red Marching Band lead the procession of students, faculty, alumni and local residents to the Ag Quad after the completion of the inauguration ceremony on the Arts Quad. There, attendees enjoyed box lunches containing a chicken or portabella mushroom wrap, cole slaw, chips and an apple and lounged on checkered blankets and hay bales, according to a University press release. The dairy bar’s new ice cream flavor in honor of Cornell’s 13th president — 24 Garrett Swirl — also debuted at the community picnic. The ice cream combines hints of chocolate, caramel and mocha with fudge truffles, and was inspired by some of Garrett’s favorite flavors, according to the University.
