We are an expanding department in the School of Humanities and Sciences,

New York. Cornell University is also located in Ithaca.

undergraduate and graduate teacher certification programs in Humanities
and Sciences; and helping to develop community outreach and

certification officer for the College. The chair’s teaching load will be
