SUMMARY:2026 Bouchet Society Lecture
DESCRIPTION:Building Access\, Strengthening Evidence\, and Advancing Impact for Research and Practice\nSpeaker: Ozias A. Moore\, Ph.D. ’16\, Associate Professor of Management in the College of Business at Lehigh University\nDate: March 17\, 2026 \nTime: 12:15-1:30 pm ET\nPrimary Location: G10 Biotechnology Building (Zoom option is available for whom in-person engagement is not a viable option.) \nRegister \n  \nSession Summary:\nWhat shapes access to the relationships\, resources\, fair evaluation\, and learning opportunities that individuals need to succeed in organizations — and what stands in the way? In this Bouchet lecture\, Dr. Ozias A. Moore addresses these questions through findings from his multi-method research program\, organized around four central themes: access to supportive relationships and resources\, access to fair evaluation\, access to learning\, and access to trustworthy knowledge. Drawing from diverse theoretical perspectives and research designs\, including field studies\, experiments\, and archival and longitudinal research\, he examines how people rebuild professional networks and performance after organizational disruption\, how bias enters hiring and career decisions\, how team structure shapes the way people learn from one another\, and how AI literacy influences trust when collaborating with generative AI. He also addresses why transparency in how we conduct research matters for building trustworthy knowledge. Taken together\, these findings demonstrate that the conditions shaping access to relationships\, evaluation\, and learning are interconnected\, with implications for both organizational practice and how we advance research. The lecture will foster insights and meaningful discussion to guide future directions\, in ways that reflect the Bouchet Graduate Honor Society’s qualities of scholarship\, leadership\, character\, service\, and advocacy. \n  \n \n\nAbout our speaker: \n\n\nAs a Cornell Bouchet Society alum\, Dr. Ozias A. Moore is an Associate Professor of Management in the College of Business at Lehigh University. He has also held a Visiting Assistant Professor of Management position at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. His research spans individual and team levels of analysis\, with an overarching focus on how individuals effectively work across boundaries in dynamic organizational settings. He examines how dynamic team composition\, in particular multiple team membership (MTM)\, and the microdynamics of social networks shape within- and between-team interactions and team effectiveness\, and how personal characteristics and contextual factors influence evaluation\, decision-making\, diversity\, and learning for employees and leaders. His research has been published in journals\, including the Academy of Management Review\, Journal of Applied Psychology\, Computers in Human Behavior: Artificial Humans\, Group & Organization Management\, The Leadership Quarterly\, Journal of Occupational and Organizational Psychology\, and Personnel Psychology. He serves on the editorial review boards of the Journal of Organizational Behavior and the Journal of Management Studies. \nDr. Moore’s research findings have been featured in popular media outlets. He has received national and university-wide recognition for excellence in teaching\, including being named among the Top 50 Undergraduate Business Professors by Poets & Quants and receiving the Lehigh University College of Business Teaching Excellence Award. While at Cornell\, he was a Graduate School Dean’s Scholar and received the Toni Morrison Award for Graduate Mentorship. Before completing his Ph.D.\, he held management and executive-level positions at Westinghouse Electric Corporation\, IBM Corporation\, American Express\, and Pfizer\, Inc. He is also a certified Project Management Professional (PMP®) through the Project Management Institute (PMI). \nDr. Moore earned a B.S. in Business Administration from the University of Pittsburgh\, an M.S. in Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania\, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in Human Resource Studies from the School of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell University.

These partnerships advance both research\, educational\, and professional development agendas. There is a relatively broad spectrum of organizations and strategic agendas to develop such partnerships\, but this discussion will consider one type of partnership that has received continued growing attention over the past decade. Although substantive partnerships between majority institutions and Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) have been occurring at least since the 1970s\, in recent years due to the research trajectory of many of these institutions\, expanding opportunities exist presently. For example\, the National Academies of Science\, Engineering\, and Medicine (NASEM) has described these institutions as a relatively untapped national resource for talent. The importance and benefits of this type of partnership in higher education and recent examples of strategies used to create equitable and sustainable partnerships with HBCUs will be discussed. \nSpeaker\n \nDr. Wayne A. Scales (Cornell PhD ‘88)\, J. Byron Maupin Professor of Engineering\, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University\nProf. Wayne Scales received BS and MS degrees in Honors Electrical Engineering and Applied Mathematics from Virginia Tech and the PhD from Cornell University in Electrical Engineering and Applied Physics with focus in Space Plasma Physics. He was an ASEE Postdoctoral Fellow in the Space Plasma Physics Branch of the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. Afterwards\, he joined the Bradley Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Virginia Tech and is currently the J. Byron Maupin Professor of Engineering and was founding Director of the Center for Space Science and Engineering Research (Space@VT) and founding Co-Director of the Interdisciplinary Graduate Education Program in Remote Sensing. Prof. Scales is also an affiliate Professor in the Kevin T. Crofton Department of Aerospace and Ocean Engineering. He has served as Special Assistant to the Dean of Engineering and Senior Consultant to the Vice President of Research and Innovation working on special initiatives in Quantum Information Science\, Nanoscale Science\, and Postdoctoral Affairs. He currently serves as Associate Vice Provost for Faculty Affairs where his responsibilities include supporting special initiatives involving faculty development as well as research and workforce development partnerships with MSIs and HBCUs. His work in this area has been supported by the National Science Foundation\, the Sloan Foundation\, and the Genentech Foundation Fund. \nThis keynote will be held on Cornell University central campus\, and livestream access will also be available to remotely participating graduate students and postdocs.  \nSponsorship \nThis is a collaborative initiative of the Cornell Graduate School Office of Inclusion and Student Engagement (OISE)\, the Office of Career and Professional Development Future Faculty and Academic Careers program\, and the Office of Postdoctoral Studies\, \nQuestions? \nInstitute Dates: Tuesday\, June 17 (In-Person & Zoom); Wednesday\, June 18 (Zoom) \nTimes: June 17\, 12:00 – 2:00 pm ET; June 18\, 12:30 pm – 4:45 pm ET \nLocations: June 17\, G10 Biotech & Zoom; June 18\, Zoom \nRegistration: https://blogs.cornell.edu/futureprofs/registration-2025/ \nRegistration Priority Dates: June 12\, 2025 (for In-Person Participation); June 16\, 2025 (for Virtual Participation) \nPlease direct any questions to: futurefaculty@cornell.edu

SUMMARY:2024 Bouchet Lecture at Cornell University
DESCRIPTION:The Emancipatory Vision of L. C. Dorsey: Black Food Futures and the Struggle for Civil Rights\nDate: November 14\, 2024  \nTime: 3:30 – 5:00 pm ET \nLocation: G10 Biotech & Zoom \n*Zoom option is available for those for whom in-person engagement is not a viable option.  \nRegistration now open \nPlease join us for the inaugural Bouchet Lecture at Cornell University on November 14 featuring Cornell Bouchet Society and Ph.D. Alum\, Dr. Bobby J. Smith II. \nSession Summary\nThis lecture challenges us to reconsider how we think and talk about food. Drawing on research from his award-winning book\, Food Power Politics: The Food Story of the Mississippi Civil Rights Movement (UNC Press\, 2023)\, Dr. Bobby J. Smith II narrates how food emerged as a contested site of Black freedom during the American Civil Rights Movement in Mississippi. He focuses on the emancipatory vision of Mrs. L. C. Dorsey\, a woefully forgotten civil rights activist\, and her role as the leader of the North Bolivar County Farm Cooperative\, an innovate local Black food network of activists\, community members\, healthcare professionals\, and farmers. While the development of the cooperative is overlooked in stories about the struggle for civil rights\, Smith shows how Dorsey and the cooperative network used the civil rights movement as incubator for the creation of innovative food systems. Looking forward\, such food systems provide blueprints for Black food futures—where Black communities have the full autonomy and capacity to imagine\, create and sustain a self-sufficient local food system designed by them.  \nAbout Our Speaker\nCornell Bouchet Society alum\, Dr. Bobby J. Smith II is an interdisciplinary scholar of the African American agricultural and food experience. Trained as a sociologist\, with a background in agricultural economics\, Dr. Smith is an Assistant Professor in the Department of African American Studies and Fellow in Policy Design Lab in the Department of Agricultural and Consumer Economics at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign\, with affiliations in the Department of Food Science & Human Nutrition\, and the Center for Social & Behavioral Science.  \nHis research program and teaching agenda cultivates an intellectual sphere and public space to interpret how Black people build agricultural and food systems amid inequalities that orbit the Black world. Dr. Smith is the author of Food Power Politics: The Food Story of the Mississippi Civil Rights Movement (University of North Carolina (UNC) Press\, 2023). Thinking with multiple disciplines including African American Studies\, critical food studies\, and agricultural science\, Food Power Politics brings into focus how food was used as a weapon against African Americans during the civil rights movement in Mississippi\, and how they fought back\, creating their own food programs and systems. Interfacing archival data\, in-depth interviews\, and oral histories\, Food Power Politics illuminates how the food dynamics of the Mississippi civil rights movement provide a pathway for understanding how Black youth today—in Mississippi and beyond—are building food justice movements\, grappling with inequalities that attempt to shape their lives.  \nDr. Smith earned a B.S. degree (summa cum laude) in Agriculture\, with a focus on Agricultural Economics\, from Prairie View A&M University in 2011. He earned a M.S. degree in Agricultural and Applied Economics in 2013 and a Ph.D. in Development Sociology in 2018 from Cornell University.  \nAbout the Edward A. Bouchet Graduate Honor Society\nYale University and Howard University established the Edward A. Bouchet Graduate Honor Society in 2005. Named for the first African American doctoral recipient in the United States (Ph.D. from Yale University in 1876)\, the Bouchet Society recognizes outstanding scholarly achievement and promotes diversity and excellence in doctoral education and the professoriate. Outside of the society’s founding universities\, Yale and Howard\, Cornell was among the earliest universities to establish a chapter of the Bouchet Society with its first members inducted in 2006. \nThe Bouchet Society seeks to develop a network of preeminent scholars who exemplify academic and personal excellence\, foster environments of support and serve as examples of CLASS: Character\, Leadership\, Advocacy\, Scholarship\, and Service. In the spirit of Bouchet’s commitment to these pursuits both within and beyond the academic realm\, inductees into the honor society exhibit these qualities and demonstrate a commitment to advancing diversity\, inclusion\, access\, and equity in the academy\, especially by those from backgrounds historically underrepresented in higher education. \nEvent Sponsors\nGraduate School Office of Inclusion & Student Engagement\, CROPPS (Center for Research on Programmable Plant Systems)\, and the Cornell Chapter of the Bouchet Graduate Honor Society \n

In reality\, there is a constant interaction between forces under our control (i.e.\, agency) and forces outside of our control (i.e.\, structures) that impact and impede our ability to successfully navigate academic careers. In this workshop\, Dr. Damani White-Lewis will consider this duality within three essential elements of academic training: workloads\, writing\, and the workforce. Suitable for graduate students\, early career faculty\, and professional staff\, attendees will learn personal strategies and the necessary structural conditions that can be advocated for to improve their workload balance\, scholarly writing\, and hiring prospects. \nSpeaker\n \nDr. Damani White-Lewis\, Assistant Professor of Higher Education\, University of Pennsylvania\, Graduate School of Education\nDamani White-Lewis\, PhD\, is an assistant professor of higher education at the University of Pennsylvania. As an interdisciplinary scholar\, Dr. White-Lewis studies racial inequality in academic careers and contexts using multiple methods and theories from organizational behavior and social psychology. \nDr. White-Lewis’ work has been funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) and has appeared in The Journal of Higher Education\, Research in Higher Education\, The Review of Higher Education\, American Educational Research Journal\, Teachers College Record\, and others. His dissertation received the 2020 Outstanding Dissertation Award from the National Association of Chief Diversity Officers. He has also received honors and awards from the Association for the Study of Higher Education\, the American Association of Blacks in Higher Education\, and the American Educational Research Association. As a public scholar\, he has been featured in outlets such as Inside Higher Ed and Diverse: Issues in Higher Education\, and regularly advises college campuses and external organizations on addressing issues related to the academic profession\, racial equity\, and institutional transformation and systemic change in higher education. \nThis keynote will be held on Cornell University central campus\, and livestream access will also be available to remotely participating graduate students and postdocs.  \nSponsorship \nThis is a collaborative initiative of the Cornell Graduate School Offices of Future Faculty and Academic Careers\, Inclusion and Student Engagement\, and Postdoctoral Studies\, and is based on work that was funded in part by the National Science Foundation (grant number 1647094; CIRTL AGEP). \nQuestions? \nPlease direct any questions to: futurefaculty@cornell.edu

SUMMARY:2022 Summer Success Symposium
DESCRIPTION:The Summer Success Symposium is a professional and community development event for new and continuing doctoral students from across all graduate fields. The symposium has a particular focus on bringing together recipients of graduate fellowships in support of diversity as well as all other doctoral students from backgrounds historically excluded from and underrepresented in the academy. This includes\, but is not limited to students who identify as Black\, Indigenous\, Hispanic/Latina/o/x\, and/or Southeast Asian\, and/or those that identify as first-generation college (FGC) students\, LGBTQQ+ identified students\, veterans\, students with disabilities\, women in STEM\, students with DACA status\, and others. Master’s degree students interested in pursuing doctoral studies are also welcome to this event. \nThrough this symposium\, participants have the opportunity to form connections and establish community. This symposium also provides participants with the opportunity to engage with successful alumni\, faculty\, and professionals with shared experiences and identities. Summer Success Symposium keynote and workshop content focus on providing participants with access to knowledge and insights that will help them navigate their successful transition into and progression through their graduate studies. \nRegistration Required \nSymposium Agenda \n 10:00 – 10:15 am ET \nCheck-In \n10:15 am – 10:30 am ET \nWelcoming Remarks \nSpeaker: Sara Xayarath Hernández\, Associate Dean for Inclusion and Student Engagement\, Graduate School \n10:30 am – 12:00 pm ET \nOpening Plenary Session: Writing for Healing and Joy – Resisting the Traumatic Experience of the Academic Writing Process \nIn this session\, you will learn about embedding healing\, joy\, and wellness into the academic writing process. Through Dr. Villarreal’s experience as a mami-scholar dealing with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and depression in the middle of a global pandemic\, she developed coping skills influenced by a combination of Chicana feminist teachings\, occupational therapy\, and consejos from her community. Determined to not allow the dissertation process to be yet another traumatic experience in academia for her\, she instead cultivated one that brought her healing and joy. In this session\, Dr. Villarreal will share her experience and give guidance on how graduate students can cultivate wellness\, joy\, and healing along their research and writing journeys. \nSpeaker: Cynthia Villarreal\, Assistant Professor\, Northern Arizona University \n12:00 – 12:30 pm ET \nLunch \n12:30 – 2:00 pm ET \nAlumni Keynote Session: Defining and Progressing Toward Your North Star \nGraduate school can feel confusing. The process is defined\, but vague. It’s structured\, but also very individualized. When navigating this process\, it can become difficult at times to maintain a sense of agency. Because the constant in all of this is you\, it’s critical that you find ways to ground yourself so you don’t lose sight of what you want from this journey. In this session\, we discuss how to define your purpose and develop well-aligned goals. We also discuss successful strategies for sustaining your passion through graduation and beyond. \nSpeaker: Elizabeth Wayne\, M.S. ’13\, Ph.D. ’16 Biomedical Engineering\, Assistant Professor\, Biomedical Engineering and Chemical Engineering \n2:15 – 3:30 pm ET \nMastering Your Transition Into & Progression Through Graduate School  \nDuring this panel discussion with current doctoral students from across the disciplines\, panelists will candidly discuss their experiences and strategies for making a successful transition into graduate school. They will also share insights on their experiences navigating their ongoing progression through their graduate studies\, and their exploration and preparation for various postgraduate career pathways. \nEvent Sponsors \nGraduate School Office of Inclusion & Student Engagement\, Diversity Programs in Engineering\, Future Faculty and Academic Careers\, and the Cornell Chapter of the Bouchet Graduate Honor Society \nThis event is also supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No.1647094 (AGEP CIRTL) and a subcontract under Grant No. 1231286 (Cornell AGEP).
