For Weill Cornell Medicine, 1998 was a banner year. Amid its centennial celebration, the academic medical institution renamed itself in deep appreciation for Joan and Sanford I. Weill and their exemplary leadership, launching a bright, new era of dynamic expansion.
After 20 years of bold and visionary leadership, Sanford I. Weill will retire as chair of the Weill Cornell Board of Overseers. Jessica M. Bibliowicz, successful business executive, named new chair of the board.
