To benefit first-generation students, Fred and Judy Wilpon—friends of Cornell who have given significant support and service to the College of Veterinary Medicine and the Baker Institute for Animal Health—have established an Irene and Morris B. Kessler Presidential Scholars Program at Cornell. Set to begin in fall 2019, the Kessler Scholars Program will identify 20 academically talented, community-focused undergraduates each year to participate in a multi-tiered system of support, community, and financial aid, administered by Student and Campus life, through the Dean of Students Office.
