Cornell Experience Modernization Initiative

As common as possible, as different as necessary

Shaped by the Cornell Community: Get Involved

Contribute your skills and experience to the Cornell Experience Modernization Initiative (CEMI, said as “See Me”). Community members know the current processes and systems best—and what it’s going to take to change how we do things.

Use the new community interest forms to ask a question, suggest improvements, get involved in a CEMI team, or join the mailing list to stay informed.

The CEMI hub for these forms is managed through Salesforce and is accessed via campus login: https://cornell.my.site.com/cemi/s/.
