[quote=Anonymous]Had not thought of the diversity of disciplines which is a good point. That region of NY is pretty and the downtown area looked like a fun town for college students. We were turned off by the size of it all. Very large (hilly) campus (long distances to walk or wait for buses in the cold!), and large classes (at least early ones: the tour guide explained that one popular class had 800 students!). That made me think you would be unlikely to interact with their many famous faculty members. Also, due to its size, there was something impersonal. Like the Admissions tour was a cattle call. And it was one of the rare campuses where we had to pay for parking (though to be fair, I guess you encounter this in other large schools near cities, such as UMCP). As you might suspect, my DC opted for a very small school instead. But obviously, for a different kid, Cornell has a lot to offer. [/quote]
