The Nexus Scholars Program for the summer of 2025 wrapped up earlier this month with presentations by all 97 students involved in the program.
Nexus Scholars Basil Bob ’27 & Morgan Perlstein ‘27, both English and government double majors, focused on an English literature research project this summer. “Ithaca over the summer has been a great experience. I’ve gotten to meet a lot of interesting, amazing people.”
And Nexus Scholar Kathy Lim ’28, an information science and economics double major, used machine learning to study Alzheimer’s disease. “All of the professional development events were a great way to explore careers in academia or outside of academia.”
The Nexus Scholars Program offers students a summer research experience on campus, as well as professional development workshops, career exploration events, and the chance to be part of a cohort from throughout the college who are passionate about learning. The program is funded thanks to generous gifts from alumni, parents and friends.
