Scholar House In The News

On October 14, 2024, my journey as an AIFIS-Luce Fellow began with flights from Jakarta to Narita, Newark, and finally Ithaca. Upon arrival at Tompkins International Airport in Ithaca, I was warmly welcomed by Donna L. Pinnisi, Coordinator of Scholar Services at Cornell.
University’s Einaudi Center. She drove me directly to the International Scholar House, where I would be staying. During my stay, Donna has been incredibly helpful, showing me around the center, connecting me with SEAP officers, and answering any questions about Cornell and the Ithaca area.
