The whole school is Ivy.


Really? I have a lot of friends from New York and grew up near there. Everyone I knew growing up considered only the undergrad arts and sciences to be Ivy.


Heard the same from friends who are alums from 18,20 yrs ago, they consider only A&S and Engineering as ivy level. Their school, their interpretation i suppose.


I am an A&S grad from 25 years ago. Whoever thinks this is really pathetic and I’m afraid of how their viewpoint gets manifested.


Unfortunately this perception is true

Exactly…..
But but let these crazies think what they want to think. No skin in this.

Cornell seems to be handling the campus unrest better than most.

You can only apply as a NY resident and even then they have a sixth sense for people not serious about Human Ecology.

From Cornell’s website:

“Cornell is a private, Ivy League university and the land-grant university for New York state. Cornell’s mission is to discover, preserve and disseminate knowledge, to educate the next generation of global citizens, and to promote a culture of broad inquiry throughout and beyond the Cornell community. “

The College of Agriculture and Life Sciences (CALS), one of the seven undergraduate colleges at Cornell University, is regarded as the best college of its kind in the world. It is the only college of agriculture and life sciences in the Ivy League and the second largest college at Cornell.
