Lee Teng-hui, right, former president of Taiwan, greets a crowd of about 500 well-wishers,
Tuesday, after his arrival at Ithaca-Tompkins Regional Airport. Lee, who earned his Ph.D. in
agricultural economics from Cornell in 1968, is on a private visit to campus, through today, to see
his granddaughter, a Cornell undergraduate student. The university used the occasion of his visit
to announce the establishment of the Lee Teng-hui Institute for scientific research. There will be additional coverage of Lee's visit to Cornell in the July 12 edition of the Chronicle.
