The Migrant Student Record Transfer System helps about 900,000 migrant children in the United States receive medical and education histories as they move. Georgia’s Susie Underwood and six state directors conceived the idea in 1957 with pilots in 1968, expanding to over 8,000 districts and 400,000 children, reducing dropout rates and aiding retention and graduation prospects.

Raul Manglapus, former Philippines foreign secretary, joined Cornell's Southeast Asia Program to reach wider audiences with a musical comedy rather than a scholarly treatise.
