“The most important aspect of receiving the Affinito-Stewart grant was the<br />
encouragement and recognition from the PCCW. It was very helpful to receive<br />
funding to initiate a new area of research; however the boost to my confidence was<br />
priceless!”<br />
“The Affinito-Stewart grant offered me critical scholarly, moral, and financial<br />
support at a particularly sensitive time in my academic career: not just pre-tenure,<br />
but also a time of transition between ‘old’ work (Ph.D. research), and new emergent<br />
projects of study.”<br />

“Beyond putting me in touch with so many smart, accomplished<br />
women who enjoy one another and work well together, PCCW<br />
has greatly expanded my appreciation of <strong>Cornell</strong>’s academic<br />
leadership. Every one of our meetings has introduced us to<br />
different facets of <strong>Cornell</strong> scholarship, critical thought and<br />
practical solutions.”<br />

past Chair, Communications Committee<br />
“At the heart of science are the words, I think, I wonder, I understand. Science is the<br />
search for understanding. Technology is how science is put to work.”<br />
