Episode Synopsis
In the first part of the two-part Centennial Series, Erin Flinn ’00, Nancy James ’96, and Olivia Dybas ’23 reflect on the Cornell Chorus’s centennial celebration, offering insights from both seasoned and recent alumni perspectives. Founded in 1920, the Chorus had planned to commemorate its 100th anniversary in 2021. However, the pandemic necessitated a delay until 2022, providing additional time to connect with alumni across generations and organize pre-centennial virtual meetups. The alumni delve into the event's planning logistics, including the creation of a dedicated co-centennial chair executive position to ensure its success. Their stories highlight their shared commitment to preserving and celebrating the Chorus’s history.
