SUMMARY:Nurture Your Network

Incorporate AI tools\, a tracking system\, and LinkedIn strategies to build reputation and reach. \nWorkshop outcomes:\n\nUnderstand why and how to build a network\nLeverage the power of LinkedIn to identify and communicate with professionals\nLearn to manage a network\, and track it with a “Digital Rolodex a/k/a Tres Anillos.”\n\nNetworking is a two-way street where you must invest time and energy to nurture and grow it. Being intentional about your interactions can mean the difference between opening and closing doors. You can build something invaluable if you are selective and curate who/what you want to learn more about through informational interviews.

We learn about an industry or sector through informational interviews (an opportunity to gather information and share your pitch)\, do market research\, and find areas to collaborate. A genuine connection can organically lead to anything and everything. Integrate Excel with AI to track activities. \nJoin our in-person only hands-on networking workshop! All disciplines welcome!

SUMMARY:Ph.D. Hooding Photos Prior to Recognition Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:The Graduate School invites Ph.D. graduates and their advisors to the Corson-Mudd Hall atrium for the opportunity to have a professional photographer capture posed photos acting out the ceremonial hooding prior to the formal Ph.D. Recognition ceremony on May 22\, 2026. Photos will be shared with the graduates free of charge in the days following Commencement weekend. \nPhotographers and photo backdrops will be available between 3:30 and 5:30 p.m. in the atrium of Corson-Mudd Hall\, on Tower Rd. Photographers will capture posed photos of Ph.D. candidates and their advisors acting out the ceremonial hooding\, in which a faculty member places the hood over the shoulders of the graduate to signify their success in completing their graduate program.  \nHundreds of Ph.D. candidates will be recognized at the event\, so please plan to arrive early to avoid a last-minute rush to take your photos. The photographers and backdrops will not be available following the formal Ph.D. Recognition Ceremony. \nGraduates are free to invite their advisors or another committee member to perform the hooding. In addition\, Dean of the Graduate School and Vice Provost for Graduate Education\, Thomas A. Lewis\, will be available from 4:30-5:30 p.m. to hood graduates whose advisors are unable to attend. Graduates should wear their appropriate cap\, gown\, and hood. Faculty members may wear their regalia\, but it is not required. \nGraduates and their advisors do not need to RSVP to take advantage of this opportunity. However\, candidates must register to attend the ceremony in Barton Hall. \nPlease contact the Graduate School with any questions about this event: gradschool@cornell.edu
