Cornell University President Martha Pollack stopped by the Liberty Hyde Bailey Conservatory Thursday as part of a tour of the School of Integrative Plant Science (SIPS). Plant sciences majors Nicolas Glynos ’17 and Patty Chan ’18 led President Pollack and CALS Dean Kathryn Boor on a tour of the Conservatory’s collection of more than 600 plant species. “Nick and Patty did a great job explaining the Conservatory and answering President Pollack’s questions about the plants,” says SIPS director Christine Smart. “We’re so lucky to have this resource to engage people in the plant sciences.”
