Far above Cayuga's waters,

with its waves of blue,

Stands our noble Alma Mater,

glorious to view.

Lift the chorus, speed it onward,

loud her praises tell;

Hail to thee our Alma Mater!

Hail, all hail, Cornell!

Courses for FEA

I am looking to take a course that will help me develop skills in FEA, Anysy, etc. I know a lot of people pick up these skills from project teams, but are there any classes that I could take?

Winter LSC Scholarship??

Does anyone know how lenient with giving these out they are? I'm a student on aid currently ~ 2-3 classes behind for my major and I asked my major advisor to nominate me for the scholarship and they agreed, saying I was a little behind. However, I'm a junior so it's not like I won't graduate if I don't take the winter classes, but it would take a lot of pressure off of overloading future semesters

Switching majors within CALS as a junior transfer?

Hello,

How hard would it be to switch between CALS majors from e.g communication to environment and sustainability in the summer before joining Cornell OR the first fall? As a junior transfer although I'm supposed to declare a major and have taken quite a few prerequisites for it at my home college, I still want to know how much flexibility there is. Thanks a lot!

pet peeves

  1. when people talk about "real food" insinuating mcdonalds or wherever is serving like holograms. Of course it's real– being processed or whatever doesn't make it part of some simulated reality beyond our own

  2. when people tell me "have a good one! :3". A good what?

Information on HADM 4200

Has anyone taken HADM 4200 with Professor Gragana Cvijanovic? I plan to take it in the spring as part of the Real Estate minor but am an A&S student and have very limited info about any Hotel School's professors. I'd also love to hear anyone's experiences taking the course, like difficulty level, median grade, workload, etc. Anything pertinent!

Thank you!

Johnson Curve for MBA's

For Johnson MBA's, since most classes are curved on a 3.5 GPA scale, how common/uncommon is the A+ or 4.3 grade? Since Cornell is technically graded out of the 4.3 GPA scale

New real estate developments around Cornell

https://ithacavoice.org/2024/10/gallery-a-look-at-the-new-developments-surrounding-cornell-university/

The number of new apartment buildings near C-town is quite impressive. Gone are the days when ten (or more) of us lived in those run-down houses.

Even the fire department is getting a new digs at C-town.

Looking for carpool for thanksgiving (Ithaca <-> Pittsburgh)

Hi everyone, I’m kind of new to Ithaca so I don’t know where to look. Does anyone have any leads on where to find some carpooling groups whether among students or people from the town?

Alternatively, is anyone here going to Pittsburgh for Thanksgiving willing to take one more person? (I would pay you)

key lost

has anybody seen a key on North campus, on the way from Ecology House to Jessup&Triphammer bus stop. I lost my key and changed the lock less than a month ago and really do not have much extra money to get a new one😭

Apart from looking for my key, what else can I do?

Are Cornell winter courses easier to complete?

How are the exams if it’s asynchronous? Luckily the price is not a factor in the situation but would prefer to do well than struggle for a semester

Cornell MHM

I applied to Cornell's MMH program last year but my application was rejected because I had asked for a GMAT waiver ( or my application wasn't strong)

I have about 2/3 years of work experience including internship in big hotels and I am currently working as a hotel manager at a small hotel in CO. I want to reapply. I tried taking the Gmat this month but was only able to score 525. I know the GMAT scores are highly competitive for the program.

Should I apply this fall as well? Or no?

Cornell has been my dream school for very long.

I have some savings that can be used to fund my studies.
