<p>Not so sure about the research/internship opportunities. Cornell is just soo much bigger than Harvard that the quantity of opportunities has to be at least comparable. Same thing with faculty strength–at this level in academia, there really isn’t that much of a difference between the average faculty member at each university; Harvard, however, may have a higher concentration of the best faculty, but Cornell has its fair share as well. Otherwise, yes the other things are probably better for the most part, but would you be happy at Harvard (likewise, would you be happy at Cornell)?</p>
