“I’ve wanted to go to Madagascar for as long as I can remember; it’s a place where my passions collide in a spectacular way. This trip is pretty much my dream come true, and I cannot thank everyone at Cornell who has supported me, especially Laura Farmer and my advisor Professor Steven Sacks.”
— Gilman Scholar, Talitha McGuire '19
