Dyson Council for Impact and Community Engagement (DICE)

Supporting both the ethos of the Dyson School, Our Business is a Better World, and the principles of Belonging @ Cornell, the Dyson Council for Impact and Community Engagement (DICE) works to strengthen meaningful connections, campus involvement, and social responsibility across the school, college, alumni network, and industry through a variety of events, initiatives, and professional development opportunities. DICE collaborates with sister councils in Johnson and Nolan to promote cross-college community and sense of belonging.

Why DICE: I joined DICE because I strongly believe in building meaningful connections and giving back to the communities that shape us.

Through this club, I want to not only contribute my idea and energy, but also help foster opportunities that empower others. Giving back has always been a guiding principle for me, and DICE gives me the chance to translate that value into action here at Dyson.
