The Einhorn Center for Community Engagement helps Cornellians make a positive impact both locally and globally – through learning courses, research and student programs. To celebrate National Volunteer Week, a few students shared their experiences.
To highlight how local partnerships improve Cornell, Ithaca and Tompkins County, the university presented the Cornell Town-Gown Awards – known as the TOGOs – to three student-community collaborations.The 13th annual TOGOs were awarded Nov. 4 at Ithac
If you are interested in building specific skills necessary for community engagement with a more traditional method, the Einhorn Center offers courses and engaged research opportunities for students to develop skills and earn certificates in leadership. Community-engaged learning offers a unique opportunity to directly apply the hard and soft skills you learn both inside and outside the classroom to real-world situations. Working collaboratively with community members creates an educational experience that allows both parties to learn from each other.
