<p>Hi JHS,</p>
<p>Because of the all the different schools that make up the undergraduate program at Cornell, its hard to get an accurate count of college students there. Some sites, like Wikipedia, show that Cornell has “more than 13,000”. The Businessweek site at [Cornell</a> University: Undergraduate Profile ? BusinessWeek](<a href=“Businessweek - Bloomberg”>Businessweek - Bloomberg) states that there are more than 20,000 undergrads enrolled at Cornell for 2008/2009. </p>
<p>In any case, suffice to say that the school is significantly larger than UChicago in terms of student population. Additionally, if you count all the land that is owned by Cornell through its ag school, then the actual geography of the school expands enormously. Like you say, it really is a ginormous, monumental campus.</p>
