The Chinese Association of Iowa has selected Associate Director of Admission Ling Zhang as an honoree for its 2017 Iowa Chinese Achievement Awards.
“I am honored and humbled to receive this award,” Zhang said. “This means a lot to me because promoting higher education has always been my passion. I enjoy seeing students on our campus make a home at Cornell and truly thrive as they pursue their educational interests.”
The Education Leadership Award is designed to recognize the exceptional leadership of active, front-line leaders who are making a difference in the lives of students every day. Candidates are judged on their community involvement, professionalism, communication, and leadership for learning.
Over the last three years at Cornell, Zhang has recruited nearly 50 international students.
