About SCL

A message from Vice President Ryan Lombardi

Cornell is one of the world’s most remarkable academic institutions, so it is only fitting that it is also home to an equally transformational student life experience. With hundreds of unique clubs, countless student support resources, world-class dining experiences, a comprehensive residential life program, competitive varsity athletics, and more – Student & Campus Life provides all students the opportunity to grow and thrive beyond the classroom through their time at Cornell.  

The site serves as a central hub for students to connect with resources across the spectrum of Student & Campus Life, and the expansive experience that awaits outside of the classroom. SCL staff can be found across the entire Cornell campus – from dining halls to fitness centers to Cornell Health to athletics to clubs, events, career services, and so many more places. They all work to build a supportive community with opportunities for students to grow, to feel connected to the larger campus and local communities, and to find support when they struggle or just need guidance from a new perspective.  

This site is a great start for an introduction to those resources, but we also empower students and families to take the first step in reaching out to our staff and student-led SCL communities. So, take your time getting familiar with all that Student & Campus Life has to offer in these pages and then get out to explore them in person as you grow in your Cornell journey. I look forward to connecting with you and seeing you thrive on campus and beyond!

Cornell University Land Acknowledgement

Cornell University is located on the traditional homelands of the Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' (the Cayuga Nation). The Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' are members of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, an alliance of six sovereign Nations with a historic and contemporary presence on this land. The Confederacy precedes the establishment of Cornell University, New York state, and the United States of America. We acknowledge the painful history of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' dispossession, and honor the ongoing connection of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' people, past and present, to these lands and waters.

This land acknowledgment has been reviewed and approved by the traditional Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ' leadership.
