Inaugural High Road Fellowship Cools Down in NYC
Convening one final time to reflect on their High Road experience, the fellows were joined by those who made the pilot NYC fellowship possible - program sponsors, work colleagues, ILR staff, Friday speakers, alumni, and even the city itself.
ILR Students Help NYC Area Organizations, Gain Experience
Cornell Chronicle
Since 2009, the High Road Fellowship Program has placed Cornell students in organizations around Buffalo to learn, explore, examine and revitalize the historic city. This past summer, ILR expanded the program to place 12 undergraduates in nonprofits, social justice groups, government offices and unions in the New York City region.
The fellows are deep into their summer work. Things are confusing, and they’re often left with more questions than answers, but there is an understanding forming that their experiences are shaping something.
