2010-2011 International House Resident Directory and Addendum

he mission of International House istoenableselectedgraduatestudents andinterns from countriesaroundtheworld to live and learn together in a challenging and supportive residential community that builds lifelong qualities of leadership, tolerance, respect and friendship among individuals ofall nations andbackgrounds. An independent, non-profit organization, I-House achieves its mission by daily interaction among its residents and other members through programs, facilities and residential life designed to foster diversity of thought and experience, and to prepare our residents to meet the challenge of an interdependent world.

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Dear Resident Member:

It is my fervent hope that you enjoy this /nternational House Directory! \n addition to serving as a handy reference for our large and diverse community, it describes our mission or purpose, our 87 year history, our profile, our distinguished Board of Trustees, our World Council of Alumni and the endowed scholarship funds that are provided by supporters of the House to help resident members and achieve greater diversity. Perhaps most importantly, it is keepsake of your participation in our |-House community. We know that former resident members save their Directory throughout their lives as a way of recalling their community life and prompting memories when contacting old friends. Inevitably, they are brought out at informal gatherings of alumni members for lengthy and enjoyable sessions of “whatever happened to...?” and “do you remember when...?” often refer to the directories provided when was a resident member at l-House during my graduate studies. It is for these reasons that we have continued to print the Directory rather than move it onto our website as we have done with many other publications.

The Directory is not a “year book” nor, since it is published each fall, a reflection of a year gone by. Rather, it anticipates a year to come and, significantly your future lives as I- House alumni and world citizens. We hope that you will find it useful throughout your residency to help knit our global community together, and that in the coming years, as you peruse its pages, you will remember with fondness your experience here, and be encouraged to contact an old friend or acquaintance, as well as support the House. Lifelong friendships and cross cultural interaction are at the heart of the l-House community experience, and this visual record —a “snapshot” of our community in 2010-11— forever preserves a time and place in our lives.

Midway through the year, an addendum will be published containing photos and information about resident members who arrive mid-term. In the back of the Directory you'll find printed the pledge, which is recited at the Candlelight Sunday Supper at the end of each academic year. This moving ceremony marks in an unforgettable way the passage of resident members from this unique community experience into your roles as global citizens. In the years to come, hope that you will read these words again from time to time as a way of renewing your International House experience and its mission in your daily lives.

Sincerely yours,

Drnell

Donald L. Cuneo, President

On a frosty autumn morning early in 1909, Harry Edmonds (pictured at left), secretary of the Upper Manhattan Y.M.C.A., was walking up the steps of the Columbia Universi ary when he passed a| Chinese student coming down. Edmonds said “Good morning,” and continued walking until he noticed out of the corner of his eye that the young man had stopped. “Thank you for speaking to me,” he said. “I have been in New York for three weeks and you are the first person who has spoken to me.”

Deeply affected.by this encounter, Edmonds and: his wife, Florence invited a group of foreign students to their country home for simple suppers of sandwiches and coffee. These gatherings continued, and in the winter of 1910-11, the Edmondses held the first series of Sunday Suppers in Earl Hall at Columbia University. The tradition of Sunday Supper continued from the opening of International House in 1924 until today. Held four times during the academic year, the all-house suppers celebrate the spirit of friendship and good will among the 700 residents from nearly 100 countries.

RESIDENT MEMBER GIFT CAMPAIGN

he Resident Member Gift Campaign (RMGC) is a vehicle through which residents provide financial support for a scholarship, program or project that they select by democratic vote.

The campaign is an opportunity for current residents to help shape the |-House community and to leave a legacy for all future members.

The Resident Member Gift Campaign, led by now alumni Pooja Merchant ’10 and Mitch Hayes 710 along with current resident Shannon Bishop, raised $10,543 including $5,000 in challenge grants from the I-House Trustees to establish an endowed environmental fund. This endowed fund will be used to help the House reduce its carbon footprint by providing funds to make changes related to reduced electric usage, increased recycling efforts and other “Green” initiatives. The money will be invested and only a percentage of the income earned will be spent to assist the House in its Green efforts. The remainder of any income earned will be reinvested in the fund so that itcan continue to grow. Assuming the fund earns income in 2010-2011; funds will be available to be spent in 2011-2012. Three hundred seventy-one residents (53% of the House) and scores of friends, alumni and staff participated in the Campaign, donating gifts ranging from $1 to $300 with many more participating in fundraising events like the annual garage sale.

The Resident Member Gift Campaign, like Sunday Suppers and the All Nations Celebration, is an |-House tradition which is sure to endure and will benefit all future generations of |-House residents.

Ifyou would like to get involved with the 2010-2011 Resident Member Gift Campaign, please contact Director of Alumni Programs Nicole Davidson at ext. 8425 or ndavidson@ihouse-nyc.org or visit us online at Attp://residents. ihouse-nyc.org/ RMGCHome. Information about the status of past gifts may also be found on the website or by contacting Nicole.

International House greatly appreciates and proudly recognizes the hundreds of residents and other donors who generously supported the 2009-2010 Resident Member Gift Campaign. A list of contributors will be published at www.ihouse-nyc.org/honorroll.

The 2009-2010 RMGC co-chairs Shannon Bishop and Pooja Merchant present the check to the President of |-House.

THE ANNUAL FUND CAMPAIGN

he International House Annual Fund Campaign is supported by the contributions of the network of alumni and friends comprising this unique community. The health of the House and its residents is buttressed by the support of these dedicated individuals, corporations and foundations. Contributions to the Annual Fund enable the House to subsidize the expenses of every resident member by about $2,500 and to provide $400,000 in scholarship and fellowship aid annually.

Contributions to the Annual Fund Campaign are made in as diverse forms, intents, and denominations as our alumni and residents’ backgrounds. While some donors’ gifts support particular scholarship funds or program areas, others contribute to offset the general costs of operations. And while some contribute cash, some make gifts of securities, and others establish planned gifts to support International House in perpetuity.

In addition to subsidizing the residents’ expenses and providing scholarship and fellowship aid, donations to International House also support:

e Internet access in resident rooms and e Events organized to celebrate the wireless internet service on the C Level diverse cultures comprising the in the Map Lounge, Study Center, HR International House communityCommons, and the Pub; Cultural Hours, Salon Nights, and International Festivals;

¢ The Four annual Sunday Suppers

which over the past 80 years have served to unite the International House community in the spirit of brotherhood;

e Speakers’ Forums providing the opportunity for a lively interchange between resident members and such distinguished visitors as

Nelson Mandela, Colin Powell and Madeline Albright;

e Specialized training sessions for participants in the International Leadership Program, Program Fellows, and Resident Fellows;

e Community outreach programs, such as the ongoing International House

Tutorial Program that pairs resident members with local schoolchildren for tutoring and mentoring, including educational field trips and other learning experiences;

e A series of day trips and community weekends for residents to get to know one another, as well as New York City and the surrounding areas.

Whatever their area of interest or means of support, all those who contribute and donate to the International House are united by their strong belief in the value of the International House experience and its capacity to inspire cooperation, understanding and, peace despite diversity.

The Annual Fund supports activities such as Community Weekends, Cultural Nights, Sunday Suppers and many other programs held through the year.

CANDLELIGHT PLEDGE

As light begets light, so friendship and goodwill are passed from one to another.

We who have come from many nations to live in one fellowship at International House promise one another to pass the light wherever we go.

Gary Yu and Pinar Ozbek at the Candlelight Sunday Supper.
