A Message from the Chair

Dear Alumni:

I am pleased to invite you to Cornell Mosaic at Philadelphia on Saturday, February 18, 2006. You will hear from distinguished alumni panels, learn about alumni leadership opportunities and network with diverse Cornellians. The morning will kick off with a presentation by University Vice President Susan Murphy, and there will be an open forum with Cornell Trustees you don't want to miss.

As members of Cornell's Minority Alumni Initiatives Implementation Committee, we are very pleased to be part of this significant endeavor to bring together Cornell's African American, Asian American, Latino, and Native American alumni to participate in transforming conversations that celebrate diversity and advance inclusion. Please look at the program schedule and register today.

I hope to see you on February 18, 2006 at the Philadelphia Downtown Marriott.

Warm regards,

Edwin Gordon Chair, Cornell Mosaic at Philadelphia Planning Committee
