    Memorial Statements

    MEMORIAL STATEMENTS Cornell University Faculty 2019-2020 Office of the Dean of Faculty Ithaca, New York Editor Carrie Shugarts Copy Editor Jill Short 1 Preface The University Faculty has always followed the practice of including within the faculty records a memorial resolution on the death of one of its members. The faculty modified this custom that was begun in the earliest days of Cornell University in 1938 as follows: Upon the death of a member of the University Faculty, the President or Dean of Faculty shall formally notify the Faculty at the next meeting and those present shall rise in respect for the memory of the deceased member. The Provost shall then appoint a committee to prepare an appropriate memorial statement. Such statements shall not be presented in the form of resolutions, as in the past, but shall be annually collected, edited, and printed by the University in a memorial booklet, which shall be sent to members of the Faculty, to the families of the deceased members, and shall be filed with University records. This booklet, prepared by the Office of the Dean of the University Faculty, contains articles in memory of those twenty-five University Faculty members whose deaths were reported in the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020. The names of the committee members who prepared the statements are given at the end of each article. 2 Richard J. Archer June 8, 1948 – September 14, 2019 Professor Richard J. Archer was born on June 8, 1948 and died September 14, 2019 following a battle with cancer.

Funding and Requirements Overview (Academics and Teaching) (p.1-6) II. A Chronological Guideline to Progress Through the Program (p. 7-16) III. Resources for Fellowships, Grants and Prizes (p. 17-19) IV. Activities and Reading Groups (p. 20) V. Other Useful Resources (p. 21) VI. Staff, Faculty and Students (p. 22-35) VII. Areas of Study (p. 36-39) I. FUNDING AND DEPARTMENTAL REQUIREMENTS FUNDING Students are awarded five years of funding in the program, two of which consist of Sage Fellowships, usually taken in the first and fifth semesters, when no teaching is required. The additional three years of funding come with a requirement to teach one course for two semesters per year (the Graduate School does not permit teaching more than one course per semester). If you receive or come in on an outside fellowship, you are still required to teach at least two semesters to meet Graduate School requirements for the Ph.D. degree. DEPARTMENTAL REQUIREMENTS OVERVIEW Languages: You should have a good reading knowledge of the languages of choice; this involves at least two foreign languages, since one of the literatures may be English. It is strongly urged that you acquire fluency in speaking one of the foreign languages, especially if a concentration in a foreign language is chosen. If you plan to pursue a job in a language department, you will need fluency and evidence that you have taught in the language (see Teaching section below).
