Cornell Alumni for NYC's Tech Campus [+]
Dear Fellow Cornell Alumni:
We are a group of Cornell alumni in New York City who want Cornell to win the bid to create an applied sciences and engineering campus in the city. We are calling on you, our fellow alumni, numbering more than 50,000 here in NYC, to help convince Mayor Bloomberg that Cornell is the best choice.
PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION AND SHARE IT WITH YOUR FELLOW ALUMNI!
Top 5 Reasons Mayor Bloomberg Should Choose Cornell:
- A purpose-built proposal specifically designed to create technology jobs in NYC's unique economy.
- Experience running NYC's Weill Cornell Medical College, which has over 1200 faculty members, over 3000 staff members, and contributes over $1 billion annually to NYC's economy.
- The top-ranked engineering program in the Ivy League.
- One of only a handful of universities in the country with top-ten programs in all of the key technology fields (Computer Science, Electrical and Computer Engineering, Materials Science and Nanotechnology, and Information Science).
- Cornell alumni with deep roots in every aspect of NYC's emerging tech sector - start-up founders and entrepreneurs, existing industry leaders, venture and seed capital, and leading corporate customers.
Cornell has been committed to New York City for a long time, and we are incredibly well positioned to build on this partnership to accelerate New York City's technology boom.
Please sign the petition letter to express your support for Cornell's bid and to convince Mayor Bloomberg that Cornell is the obvious choice.
Thank you!
Your Fellow Cornell Alumni

We're also very, very close to setting more giving records as a class. Our dollar and donor numbers have exceeded our class goals, but just a little bit more and we could set new all-time records with them as well. Please visit our giving pages to see how you can help the class and Cornell. Who knows, it might be your gift that breaks the record.
