On the third floor of Kennedy Hall, the Hub houses five programs and units that support Cornell’s mission of public engagement. In this open and collaborative space, students, faculty, staff and community partners can learn more about and become involved in a variety of engagement opportunities on and off campus.
Units in the Hub
- Community Learning and Service Partnership (CLASP) is a participatory adult learning program designed to create and support one-on-one mutual learning partnerships of Cornell students and employees. CLASP matches students from any major who take an EDUC/DSOC course in lifelong learning with Cornell employees interested in pursuing self-selected learning goals.
- The Cornell Commitment consists of The Cornell Tradition, Hunter R. Rawlings III Cornell Presidential Research Scholars and Meinig Family Cornell National Scholars programs. These programs recognize, reward and encourage further development of approximately 900 students across all undergraduate schools and colleges who exemplify Cornell’s commitment to academic excellence, work and service, inquiry and discovery, and leadership and learning.
- The Cornell Prison Education Program brings together Cornell faculty, graduate students and undergraduates to offer a college-level liberal arts curriculum to a select group of incarcerated students at regional prisons.
- The David M. Einhorn Center for Community Engagement is the hub of community engagement at Cornell, supporting a university culture where students, faculty, staff and partners work together to create a better world. Through these partnerships, communities see positive change on issues that matter most to them; faculty infuse their teaching and research with diverse perspectives and ways of knowing; and students develop the skills, insight and humility they’ll use as lifelong learners and leaders with a public purpose.
- New York Agricultural Outreach and Education programs offer relevance of core academic concepts as they are applied to the agriculture, food and natural resources systems that we all work with each day. New York Agricultural Outreach and Education works in partnership with Cornell and the New York State Education Department.
