[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DCUM thinks Cornell is some kind of quasi public school because part of it is land grant, which is bizarre[/quote]

It literally contains a public school. 
Nothing bizarre about it. [/quote]

DP.  How does that work?  Do NY-ers get in-state tuition if they attend certain colleges at Cornell?[/quote]

No. I can never tell if there's one person who is wrong about Cornell who posts all the time or if there are many. All of Cornell is private.  It does contain several colleges, like many universities. And four of the colleges receive money from the State of New York (for the betterment of NYS and the USA) and have a partnership for funding via the SUNY system. Because the state pays some of the operating expenses, there's a small break for NYS residents. Nothing like SUNY tuition for SUNY schools.

The State Contract schools cost a NYS resident about 70k vs the 90k at the non-contracted colleges. OOS pay the 90k at every college.

All the colleges are private and part of Cornell University.[/quote]
SUNY = public. You just don’t like the word “public,” but you doth protest too much.[/quote]

This is incorrect. SUNY is the org that facilitates the state influx of cash.  You pay tuition to Cornell. ALL of Cornell is private

IT's okay to be wrong. Just google this so you can stop now.[/quote]
Google this term and think, real hard: “semantics.”[/quote]
