Cornell Worth the Debt?

<p>There is still a lot of sarcasm coming from you. I’ll “calm down” if you can stop being so sarcastic in your posts. Quote: “eternity_hope2005, if you are as hardassed as the Cornell student body…”</p>

<p>If your going to insult me, than keep your comments on me - no need for your to direct your comments on the “cornell student body”. This will only bring much more trouble onto this thread. </p>

<p>The rumor of Cornell’s high suicide rate is not necessarily true - look at this website: <a href=“Cornell University - Wikipedia”>Cornell University - Wikipedia;

<p>Comparing the Cornell average suicide rate to the average national suicide rate is pointless because the national suicide rate is a skewed statistical number. Many schools don’t actually submit their national averages and because of this, there is lot of bias in the data that statisticians have regarding suicide. Why is this important? Well, this means that we don’t really know if Cornell has a high suicide rate, average suicide rate, or a low suicide rate because the average that your comparing it to inself is a skewed value.
Because of this, everybody has to make their own conclusions regarding Cornell’s suicide rate.</p>

<p>I’ve already posted a note earlier explaining why whatever I said (the statements referring to as so “obvious”) should deserve a little bit more respect from people like you. I will not waste my time posting the same explanation again.</p>

<p>The only real mistake I made here is that I did not acknowledge Madison to be such a nice place as it seems to be. This isn’t really a big deal because like I said, everybody is entitled to their own opinion. I personally think Ithaca has the edge but you on the other hand think that Madison is better which is NOT a big deal.</p>

<p>Also, I know that you think Cornell is pretty. Squirzle is the one I wanted to challenge when he said that Ithaca was boring. And Squirzle, I’m more of a Mid-Westerner than what you called me in your previous post: “East Coaster.”</p>
