June 30, 2020 will be Lance Collins’ final day as the Joseph Silbert Dean of Cornell’s College of Engineering. Dean Collins has served ten years in the position and overseen some truly momentous changes at the College—far too many to list here. (Though if you click on the Timeline link below you can read about some of his major accomplishments as Dean.) We are deeply disappointed that the extended Cornell Engineering family will not have the chance in the coming weeks to join Lance on campus and celebrate his truly remarkable tenure.
Instead, we invite you to look through the Photo Gallery, read through the Timeline, and add a memory of your own to the growing list of moments and recollections that are, in many ways, just as important as Lance’s academic and institutional accomplishments.
