The 2021 Bulletin features many original articles, on 50 years of Bangladesh, student’s virtual internships with Oxfam India, the impacts of COVID-19 in India and the US, an unusual Humphrey Fellowship year, palm-leaf manuscripts at the Cornell University Library, and more. In addition the bulletin reviews a series of exceptional events last year, such as Atul Bhalla’s Virtual Artist Residency and Amartya Sen’s Bartels World Affairs Lecture, discuses SAP’s collaborations with the Marg Foundation and Oxfam India, highlights our outreach to community colleges and K-12 teachers, and lists selected faculty publications. The striking cover image is a detail based on a new acquisition of colonial-era printed commercial labels by the Cornell University Library.
