While some connections and programs may be virtual in the coming months, our commitment to new students through the transition to Cornell remains unchanged. Staff members are here to provide resources, answer questions, and support new students and families in this momentous life event, the beginning of college and the Cornell experience. As the move to campus approaches, you can talk with your student about what the coming weeks may hold, discuss how you’ll keep in touch, explore campus resources together, review financial and other logistics, and think about ways to keep your student connected to family life and events while they’re away. Maintaining consistent communication and offering nonjudgmental support to your student can help make this a smooth transition. If you need support to manage the impact of this change on your own life, seek out peers who have been through it, or talk with a trusted advisor or counselor. SUPPORTING YOUR STUDENT It can take time to learn how to encourage independence in your student while offering them your support. Listening to them, asking open-ended questions, and being patient with new communication patterns can ease this process. Mention the importance of self-care, sleep, eating well, and making time for fun and relaxation. Encourage your student to develop supportive relationships on campus with advisors, residence hall staff members, counselors, and peers. A quick text or email listing a few campus resources may help them find the right connection. You can find more information on their college’s website and here. Don’t forget to celebrate achievements large and small, remind your student of the progress they’ve made in adapting to college, and share your excitement about the opportunities they’re exploring at Cornell. Environmental and Sustainability Sciences majors in CALS take part in an Art Intervention under the direction of artist Marion Wilson, drawing biodiversity from three perspectives: standing, kneeling and lying down. They then hung the work in the garden to make an outdoor gallery space.

NEW STUDENT ORIENTATION Virtual Orientation 2020 continues Cornell’s commitment to welcoming new students and sharing campus essentials so that students feel prepared for the start of their first semester. Orientation introduces students to Cornell’s academic, intellectual, cultural, and social opportunities; services and resources; and the campus landscape and buildings where student life unfolds. Students learn about Cornell’s values and policies, including the university’s commitment to diversity and inclusion, integrity, freedom of speech, and civic responsibility. They begin to acclimate to their new home and make new friends through small-group sessions with student orientation leaders, floor meetings with student resident advisors, college sessions, and social activities. Cornell’s Orientation includes programs specifically designed for transfer students. While transfer students may have experienced transitions in independence and academic practices that college brings, Cornell’s Orientation is designed to ensure that they can find out what they need to know about their new campus in a timely way, and make connections with past transfer and other upper-level students who can help them create their pathway at Cornell. Orientation is only the beginning. Cornell seeks to foster an ongoing love of learning and spirit of inquiry that will continue during students’ time on campus and beyond. THE TATKON CENTER—SUPPORT, PROGRAMS, AND RESOURCES FOR FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS 607.253.4282 • Tatkon Center, S. Balch Hall • scl.cornell.edu/tatkon The Tatkon Center provides new students with support and resources in a relaxed setting near first-year residence halls and welcomes transfer students, too. The center hosts a rich variety of programs all year long. Academic departments partner with Tatkon to offer weekly drop-in tutoring, time management sessions, and other academic support. Students can experience the excitement of intellectual engagement with faculty members in a casual setting; take advantage of opportunities for career exploration; enjoy social and service events; practice self-care through drop-in counseling and meditation sessions; and participate in fun study breaks that promote well-being. Students visiting Tatkon benefit from guidance offered by diverse, upper-level student staff members who are ready to share their own Cornell experiences. Carol’s Café is on the premises, offering an array of beverages and food options. Comfortable study spaces for solo and group work round out the sense of a home away from home. Tatkon’s weekly e-newsletter is sent during the academic year to all new students. Parents can follow program offerings on the center’s website, listed above. FIRST-YEAR FAMILY WEEKEND First-Year Family Weekend (FYFW) is a chance to reconnect with your student on campus, learn about some of their favorite places, and enjoy lectures, classes, performances, open houses, athletics, and outdoor activities. Families may attend FYFW at any stage of their student’s Cornell career. Cornell will not be hosting an in-person Family Weekend in 2020 but is assessing the feasibility of a virtual event. More information will be available on the Cornell website in September. CORNELL UNIVERSITY FAMILY GUIDE Page 3 3 LIVING AT CORNELL Residence hall communities give students a chance to live and learn with other students, staff, and faculty members from all over the world. Residents will experience inclusive academic and social programs in an environment designed to create the best possible atmosphere for academic achievement, intellectual exploration, personal development, and well-being. Students who live off-campus can be part of the residential community experience, too. Like students living on campus, off-campus residents can request to become out-of-house members of Cornell’s Program Houses, becoming part of a community and participating in house programs. Opportunities for new students to gain valuable leadership experience in residence halls include the Hall Council, Peer Review Board, Residential Student Congress, and National Residence Hall Honorary. THE NORTH CAMPUS LIVING-LEARNING COMMUNITY All first-year students live on North Campus as part of a living-learning community that fosters academic and intellectual learning, personal development, holistic well-being, and a sense of belonging and connectedness. Faculty-in-residence (faculty members who live in the residences) and faculty fellows play pivotal roles, encouraging students to make meaningful connections with faculty members. The program inspires learning outside the classroom, makes the residence halls a space for learning as well as living, deepens students’ intellectual experiences, and reinforces the centrality of intellectual life at the university. Affiliated faculty members work with residence hall staff members to support the living-learning experience. RESIDENTIAL LIFE 607.255.5533 • 1501 Clara Dickson Hall • ccengagement.cornell.edu/residential-programs The Residential Life Office provides a safe, inclusive, and purposeful living and learning environment focused on fostering students’ personal development, critical thinking, intellectual engagement, and social responsibility. Residential Life encompasses 21 undergraduate residential communities and program houses for students across North Campus and Collegetown. Every community has a live-in, professional residence hall director (RHD) or area coordinator (AC), and more than 130 student resident advisors (RAs) work within the residence halls to establish a vibrant, healthy living environment.

  • Four Master Teachers Who Fostered American Turn-Of-The-(20<Sup>TH
    MYCOTAXON ISSN (print) 0093-4666 (online) 2154-8889 Mycotaxon, Ltd. ©2021 January–March 2021—Volume 136, pp. 1–58 https://doi.org/10.5248/136.1 Four master teachers who fostered American turn-of-the-(20TH)-century mycology and plant pathology Ronald H. Petersen Department of Ecology & Evolutionary Biology, University of Tennessee Knoxville, TN 37919-1100 Correspondence to: [email protected] Abstract—The Morrill Act of 1862 afforded the US states the opportunity to found state colleges with agriculture as part of their mission—the so-called “land-grant colleges.” The Hatch Act of 1887 gave the same opportunity for agricultural experiment stations as functions of the land-grant colleges, and the “third Morrill Act” (the Smith-Lever Act) of 1914 added an extension dimension to the experiment stations. Overall, the end of the 19th century and the first quarter of the 20th was a time for growing appreciation for, and growth of institutional education in the natural sciences, especially botany and its specialties, mycology, and phytopathology. This paper outlines a particular genealogy of mycologists and plant pathologists representative of this era. Professor Albert Nelson Prentiss, first of Michigan State then of Cornell, Professor William Russel Dudley of Cornell and Stanford, Professor Mason Blanchard Thomas of Wabash College, and Professor Herbert Hice Whetzel of Cornell Plant Pathology were major players in the scenario. The supporting cast, the students selected, trained, and guided by these men, was legion, a few of whom are briefly traced here. Key words—“New Botany,” European influence, agrarian roots Chapter 1.

  • Employee Wellbeing at Cornell Re
    Your guide to resources that support all the dimensions of your wellbeing. HR.CORNELL.EDU/WELLBEING 1 2 1.6.20 Dear Colleague, During your time with Cornell, we want you to be well and THRIVE. Cornell invests in benefits, programs, and services to support employee wellbeing. This guide features a wide range of university (and many community!) resources available to support you in various dimensions of your wellbeing. As you browse this guide, which is organized around Cornell’s Seven Dimensions of Wellbeing model pictured below, you’ll find many resources cross-referenced in multiple dimensions. This illustrates the multifaceted nature of wellbeing. It is often non-linear in nature, and our most important elements shift as our work and Mary Opperman personal lives evolve. CHRO and Vice President Division of Human Resources We experience wellbeing both personally and as members of our various communities, including our work community. We each have opportunities to positively contribute to Cornell’s culture of wellbeing as we celebrate our colleagues’ life events, support one another during difficult times, share resources, and find creative approaches to how, where, and when work gets done. Behind this page is a “quick start directory” of Cornell wellbeing-related contacts. Please save this page and reach out any time you need assistance! Although some of these resources are specific to Cornell’s Ithaca campus, we recognize and are continuing to focus on expanding offerings to our employees in all locations. Thank you for all of your contributions
