Stephen Galdi (middle), one of the 33 Merrill Presidential scholars of the 2016 graduating class, honored Prof. Aristilde as the faculty who had the most influence on his undergraduate experience. Also pictured is Frank Barona (left), the high-school teacher Stephen honored as most influential to his education prior to Cornell.
Stephen’s statement on Prof. Aristilde: “From the first class I had with Professor Ludmilla Aristilde in Riley-Robb Hall, I could tell she had high expectations for her students. This is not to say that Professor Aristilde was a difficult professor, but rather that she had confidence in her students’ ability to conquer and learn from challenges. Over the two years that I have worked with Professor Aristilde’s research lab, her confidence and encouragement have been inspirational. I developed many important research skills through our research meetings, as well as the confidence and academic literacy to continue pursuing my interest in the environmental field”.

Thalia Aoki (middle), one of the 35 Merrill Presidential scholars of the 2015 graduating class, honored Prof. Aristilde as the faculty who had the most influence on her undergraduate experience. Article in the Cornell Chronicle and Article in CALS Notes.
Thalia’s statement on Prof. Aristilde: “As a nervous sophomore, I knew nothing about soil chemistry and was scared to admit what I didn’t know. Under Professor Aristilde’s guidance, I learned to ask questions and seek out answers. In striving to meet her expectations, I became a proactive, dedicated worker who could shape a story about my research. Through her example, Professor Aristilde showed me that I can succeed as a woman of color in engineering. Her mentorship gave me the skills to do so”.
