Impact Week @ Cornell

About Impact Week @ Cornell

Impact Week @ Cornell (I-Week) is a new college-wide tradition that encourages each campus entity to demonstrate and celebrate the importance of diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging through a series of activities that reflects their respective field or study. Consequently, we invite faculty, staff, and students to take advantage of this opportunity to be rejuvenated in self-care practices; inspired by interactive dialogues across difference; challenged to develop solutions that will empower communities; and supported in making an impact at Cornell.

Endorsed By: Belonging at Cornell (B@C) under the B@C Innovation Grant Funded Project B@C 360
