In her role as New York state partnership liaison, Dhyana facilitates new and strengthens existing linkages between Cornell initiatives and partner organizations in New York state. She supports access to statewide community-engaged research, learning and service experiences for students, faculty and staff.
Dhyana Says
“Community-engaged learning is important to me because of my conviction that one way of knowing is always too narrow for the task.”
“My favorite part of my job is interacting with educators who are equally motivated by the expedited ‘unlearning’ brought on by cross-cultural and experiential education, which has a way of cracking our tiny worlds open, new perspectives unraveling much of what we’ve known.”
