Once a Hotelie, always a Hotelie.

Wherever your journey takes you, the School of Hotel Administration’s alumni network will always make you feel at home—after all, we’re known for hospitality. As a Hotelie, you’re part of a very special community that starts before orientation and continues beyond your 50th Reunion.

SHA alumni are business leaders, hospitality innovators, and compassionate managers. They exemplify what it means to live a life of service. And, most importantly, they make industry connections that put the school at the hub of the hospitality ecosystem.

When you were a student, there’s no doubt that alumni helped you navigate Cornell’s endless opportunities or had an influence on your career path. Now it’s your turn to make a difference in the lives of Hotelies to come. Plan to stay connected with each other and with SHA. Because once you’re a Hotelie, you’re a Hotelie for life.
