From Ezra Cornell’s critical role in the success of the telegraph to today’s leaders in Silicon Valley, Cornellians have had a global impact as innovators and inventors committed to advancing humanity and serving the public good. Join us for a “history happy hour” to explore Cornell’s history of technology and innovation, from campus scientific breakthroughs to alumni achievements.

This periodic “Cornelliana” series examines Cornell University history, trivia, and traditions with Corey Ryan Earle '07, who teaches AMST 2001: The First American University on the university’s history.

This event is presented by Cornell Silicon Valley and Cornell West Coast Alumni Affairs.
