LAND
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
Cornell University is located on the traditional homelands of the Gayogo̱hó꞉nÇ«' (the Cayuga Nation). The Gayogo̱hó꞉nÇ«' are members of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, an alliance of six sovereign Nations with a historic and contemporary presence on this land.
​
The Confederacy precedes the establishment of Cornell University, New York state, and the United States of America. We acknowledge the painful history of Gayogo̱hó꞉nÇ«' dispossession, and honor the ongoing connection of Gayogo̱hó꞉nÇ«' people, past and present, to these lands and waters.
This land acknowledgment was submitted to traditional Gayogo̱hó꞉nÇ«' leaders for review by members of the American Indian and Indigenous Studies Program (AIISP) at Cornell.
The final version will be posted upon approval. You can read more here.
