Kathy Heppner Trogolo, a 1995 History graduate from Cornell’s College of Arts and Sciences, found her passion for music and leadership through the Cornell Chorus. Joining as an alto 2, she eventually served as President and General Manager. During her leadership, Kathy navigated the Chorus through Professor Tom Sokol’s retirement after 38 years and planned a joint Northeast tour with the Glee Club. She also initiated reunion concerts and helped establish the Chorus’s permanent repertoire, fostering alumni connections and enriching traditions. Kathy encourages members to seize opportunities and value the lifelong rewards of the Chorus community.
