In 2002, Gordon Sander ’72 ‘Adopted’ JJ Manford ’06. 22 Years Later, Sander Wrote a Book About Him
Buffalo Street Books welcomed back two Cornell alumni Friday, Nov. 22 at 5 p.m. to host a book discussion of “Rooms: The Work and Life of JJ Manford” by Gordon Sander ’72 B. Arch. Sander — a writer, photographer and teacher currently residing in Riga, Latvia — led the event alongside the subject of his biography, Jonathan “JJ” Manford ’06, a painter practicing out of Brooklyn. Sander said he came back to the University in 2002 as the “prodigal son returneth,” becoming an artist-in-residence at Risley Residential College. Sander said he likes to think he influenced Manford’s work through his mentorship, although he does not want to take credit for his work. “I think Gordon always had a vision of a homecoming of sorts, or at least doing something at Cornell or in Ithaca, because it’s so pivotal to the book,” Manford said.

Men’s Soccer Continues NCAA Tournament Run With Comeback Win Over Fordham
Men’s soccer (13-3-2, 5-2 Ivy) started its NCAA Tournament run with a comeback win over visitors Fordham (8-6-5, 4-1-3 Atlantic 10). Despite Fordham coming out to a 2-0 lead, the Red scored four straight to win the game and move on. Early on, Cornell dominated the game, with Fordham struggling to get out of its half and resist the pressure from Cornell. Lokko sent a ball across to sophomore forward Alex Harris, who softly placed a left-footed shot past the Fordham goalkeeper. The 4-2 win marked Cornell’s first NCAA Tournament win since Nov. 20, 2022 when the Red earned a bye and won its second round fixture against the University of Maryland, 2-1, in even colder conditions.
