First, there is much good news to report: Our Class of 2012 was chosen from the largest applicant pool in Cornell history, and they are already contributing to the university academically, culturally, and through public service and civic engagement. Our faculty, the core strength of the institution, continues to innovate and excel in teaching, discovery, creativity, and outreach and to attract high levels of research funding in a very competitive environment. Our staff colleagues are a critical part of the fabric of excellence at Cornell, and the university again received several awards in recognition of our efforts to create a.productive, welcoming environment for all Cornell employees. Despite the challenges of the national, state, and regional econo- mies, the alumni and friends of Cornell continue to be incredibly generous, propelling Far Above ... The Campaign for Cornell beyond the $2.25 billion mark on the way to its $4 billion goal. We have adopted a strategic plan that sets five overarching goals for the university that serve to unite and guide the institution's long-term course as well as specific strategies the university is using to reach them. In addition, we have completed the 2008 Cornell Master Plan for the Ithaca Campus, which provides an integrated framework to guide the campus's long-term physical development. I invite you to learn more about the ways in which Cornell has demonstrated national and international leadership this year while also positioning itself for continued excel- lence in its core missions of teaching, research and creative work, and outreach. Best regards, David J. Skorton President Cornell University /4 0 2 In October 2007 Cornell was privileged to host one of the world's foremost spiritual leaders, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, whose message of tolerance and peace speaks directly to the moral thinker who resides in each of us whatever our worldview may be. The Dalai Lama's ethos is one to be emulated, given the disturbing increase of high-profile news stories reporting incidents of intolerance across America and right here in Ithaca. "Let us remember the Dalai Lama's message: We are brothers and sisters, all part of the same humanity." President David J.

Author: Call number: LH-CASE 027.409 Peer Publisher: [Ithaca, N.Y.?] : [s.n.] 1969. Owner: Ithaca - Tompkins County Public Library Assigned Branch: Ithaca - Tompkins County Public Library (TCPL) Collection: Local History (LH) Material type: Book Number of pages: 1 30 pages THE FIRST HUNDRED YEARS A HISTORY OF THE CORNELL PUBLIC LIBRARY Ithaca, New York and the CORNELL LIBRARY ASSOCIATION 1864 - 1964 by Sherman Peer THE AUTHOR It's good to think of the new library so well organized and increasing in service. I am happy to have lived to see it functioning fully and so well received by the people of Tompkins County. Letter from Sherman Peer, dated February 2?, 19^9, to Mrs. John Vandervort, chairman of the trustees of the Tompkins County Public Library. Sherman Peer searched the records of the Cornell Library Association, many other written sources, and his own rich memories to write this history. A prominent Ithaca attorney who enjoyed writing and story-telling, Mr. Peer completed his work on it in 1964, when he was 81 years old. The epilogue was written by Mary Tibbets Freeman, and the manuscript was prepared for presentation at the formal dedication of the Tompkins County Library Building on April 20, 19&9. The historian also shaped the library's history by assisting in its successful rebirth as a public institution in its second century. He was convinced that the Cornell Public Library, operated since 1866 by the private Cornell Library Associa tion founded by Ezra Cornell, needed public funds for a new building and continuing support.

  • HERE in SPIRIT Cornell Celebrates Its First-Ever ‘Virtual Reunion’
    REUNION 2020 HERE IN SPIRIT Cornell celebrates its first-ever ‘virtual Reunion’ REMOTE, YET CLOSE: Student singers from the Glee Club and Chorus n June, more than 10,500 alumni from the classes of 1937 (above) join their voices on Cornelliana Night. Below: The weekend’s to 2020 participated in Reunion—a record-breaking turn­ events included (clockwise from top left) a book reading by Arts & out. Attendees enjoyed a Chimes concert, a tour of the Sciences Dean Ray Jayawardhana, reminiscences by well-known alumni I including Kate Snow ’91, a teach-in on racism and social justice, and a Botanic Gardens, class happy hours, and much more. tour of the Vet college. Opposite page: Scenes from the “virtual 5K.” And they did it all online. For the first time since World War II, Reunion wasn’t held far above Cayuga’s waters. Following the University’s transition to remote instruction and the postponement of Commencement due to the coronavirus pandemic, Alumni Affairs announced in late March that this year’s gathering would be virtual. “Initially there was some skepticism, particularly from those who had experienced an in-person Reunion,” notes Kate Freyer, director of Reunion and volunteer engage­ ment events. “It was hard to imagine those connections feeling the same way over a screen.” But by the end of the weekend, she says, the feedback was overwhelm­ ingly positive—and thanks to the virtual format, many alumni who wouldn’t have been able to travel to Ithaca for logistical or health reasons were able to participate. “While Cornellians certainly missed campus, I think this experience opened a lot of people’s eyes to the idea that connecting isn’t just in a place,” Freyer says.

    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.

Among other topics, Webb advised that he was the last survivor of the three “Bronxville Boys” who came to Cornell in 1950 from that village in Westchester County. They roomed together as freshmen, joined Delta Upsilon together and remained close friends through graduation and beyond. They even sat side by side in the 54 Cornellian’s group photo of their fraternity. Boyce Thompson, who died in 2009, worked for Pet Milk in St. Louis for a few years after graduation and later moved to Dallas where he formed and ran a successful food brokerage specializing in gourmet mixed nuts. Ever the comedian, his business phone number (after the area code) was 223-6887, which made the letters BAD-NUTS. Thankfully, his customers did not figure it out.
