Mission 

Cornell Mosaic is the University's alumni-driven diversity initiative, which seeks to celebrate diversity and advance inclusion by creating high-quality programming, is designed to outreach to, energize and engage alumni of color. 

The Cornell Mosaic Committee provides leadership guidance and oversight to the Cornell Mosaic initiative, and is comprised of alumni with a record of service to the University.  The Mosaic Committee meets four times a year in New York City. Committee members serve a two-year cycle, and contribute their energy, ideas and creativity.

The Office of Minority Alumni Programs (MAP) seeks to engage diverse alumni in the life, work and aspirations of the University, with a focus on developing volunteers to serve Cornell and move into positions of alumni leadership.  MAP provides support to the following affinity groups:  Cornell Asian Alumni Association (CAAA), Cornell Black Alumni Association (CBAA), Cornell Korean Alumni Association (CKAA), Cornell Latino Alumni Association (CLAA), Cornell Native American Alumni Association (CNAAA) and Cornell Gay and Lesbian Association (CUGULA). 

MAP is responsible for overseeing the Cornell Mosaic initiative and provides leadership to the Mosaic Committee.  MAP works closely with Cornell regional offices, the Cornell Association of Class Officers (CACO), the Colleges and Units, Reunion Programs, and the Development team to deliver quality programming, and to convey the message of supporting the University and "giving back", to Cornell's over 20,000 minority alumni base.  In addition, MAP works directly with a variety of programs and offices, including the Cornell Alumni Student Mentoring Program (CASMP), Office of Minority Educational Affairs (OMEA) and Student and Academic Services.  For additional information, please contact:
