Garrett

President Elizabeth Garrett is on a mission to meet as many Cornellians as she can over the next six months in more than a dozen cities in the U.S. and overseas. Through a series of events organized by the Division of Alumni Affairs and Development, the president will talk about her priorities for the university and discuss areas of growth for Cornell.

“Cornell is a global university, and I want to connect with our alumni, families and friends in the places they now live and work,” said Garrett. “This tour will give me insights about our spirited and diverse Cornell community, as I share my own vision and passion for our great university.”

Jim Mazza ’88, associate vice president for alumni affairs, described the tour as a special opportunity to hear directly from Garrett and emphasized Cornellians’ vital role in welcoming her to their cities.

“Thanks to our close partnerships with, and the good work of, Cornell club volunteers around the globe, this tour promises to be a terrific opportunity to introduce our inspiring president to Cornellians far and wide,” Mazza said.

Garrett’s first stop is Nov. 10 in Washington, D.C.
