"I see a special synergy between our programs in New York City and on our Ithaca campus," stated Elizabeth Garrett, Cornell University’s 13th president to a fervent crowd of 350. President Garrett illuminated towards a future of greater collaboration at her Sept. 21 introduction to Weill Cornell Medical College. President Garrett, who was inaugurated on Sept. 18, spoke to administrators, faculty and students at a reception at the Belfer Research Building on how she believes deeper relationships between Ithaca and New York City [will] bring "unprecedented level[s] of excellence."
Weill Cornell Graduate School is planning a Teacher’s Workshop on October 17th for middle and high school teachers who want to bring science to the classroom.
If you are interested in potentially teaching a project or class (we can help with ideas), please let us know! If you would just like to volunteer for that day and help with the classes already being offered that would be great, too!
