President Martha Pollack’s final commencement speeches were interrupted by a pro-Palestine demonstration and walkout staged by the Coalition for Mutual Liberation. After entering Schoellkopf Field on Saturday, demonstrating graduates at each ceremony held up banners with messages including “Divest from genocide” and “Cornell profits from genocide.” Some graduates approached the podium with banners as Pollack began to speak.

Mark Twain Days (Year Two) was yet another triumph, particularly the group photo, where every kid and her grandmother sported humongous mustachios. I can’t wait to see the print…My personal favorite event was, “Connections.” A hundred folks gathered together upstairs in the Brewery Arts Center to share personal connections that improved their lives. Not just that, but “Connections” combats social isolation, and overcomes social divisions. I congratulate Don & Debra for their selfless dedication to this nation healing construct. I hope you will join me in wishing Don & Debra every success in this noble endeavor called, “Connections.”
