The Einhorn Center’s student Monday Meet-Ups occur most Mondays throughout the semester and present a variety of programming — including informal drop-in chats, ask-the-expert discussions with invited speakers, interactive skill-building workshops, training and practice sessions and general reflective discussions.
Have something you’d like to share or present at a future meet-up? Already have something ready to go? Or, just an idea? Contact einhorncenter@cornell.edu.
Einhorn Student Fall Kick-Off Event
- Monday, September 8, 5:00 p.m.–6:30 p.m.
- G10 Biotech Building
Join us for an energizing evening that puts student leadership and community-engaged learning (CEL) at the center.
We’ll start with food and a mini club fest, your chance to showcase your organization’s mission, connect with peers, and spark new collaborations. Together, we’ll reflect on highlights from last year, revisit our community agreement, and continue to explore what community-engaged learning (CEL) means for all of us.
You’ll also meet the Einhorn Center’s student staff team, learn about upcoming programs like town halls and Monday meet-ups, and get key updates on resources and expectations for the semester. Most importantly, we’ll dive into how student learning outcomes (SLOs) help capture the impact and share tools to track hours, capture involvement, and highlight the change you’re making.
✨ Come for the food, connections, and updates—leave inspired and ready to lead another year of meaningful community work!
