CNY Humanities Corridor supports humanities collaboration

Cornell has received a $1.5 million endowment from the Central New York Humanities Corridor, thanks to a $3.55 million matching grant from the Mellon Foundation that also funded endowments at Syracuse and Rochester, which will support regional interdisciplinary humanities projects. With the Society for the Humanities stewarding the Cornell endowment, Cornell faculty will have faster access to funding with less paperwork.
