<p>YAY!!! Can’t wait to see you all in Fall 2010!!!</p>
<p>Congrats. If you’re in the NYC area, there is a welcome event for new students at the ILR Research Extension building in Manhattan during the summer. Maybe I’ll see some of you there.</p>
<p>Sweet. I’ll be there. The 4 hour drive is a small price to pay to get to see relatives in Manhattan and fellow future ILRies.</p>
<p>@tun
is there a link to this ilr research event. I live in NYC too and it sounds fun</p>
<p>is that for new students or alumni?</p>
<p>Did anyone receive the early identification form from ILR in the mail? Curious to know the purpose of the form, did you hear back, etc.</p>
<p>^??? is this after early decision?</p>
<p>I think they’re referring to the early identification form for minorities. Someone made a thread about it a few weeks ago and nobody really had any answer then, either. I’m not a URM, so I didn’t get one and don’t know much about it.</p>
<p>Congratulations, and welcome to ILR. You will have a great time here.</p>
<p>
You’ll get the e-mail much later after the regular decisions are finished.</p>
<p>so to my ILR acceptees and people already in ILR, I have a question about laptops.
Just as many engineering programs prefer PCs over macs, and same for even some business programs I heard, is there a preference in the school of ILR?</p>
<p>I’m debating whether to buy a Windows laptop( which brand and model) or a Macbook.</p>
<p>I was considering buying a Macbook Pro and just running XP in Boot Camp if I ever wanted to go back to Windows, but, man, I’m really liking the idea of spending half the money on twice the power/RAM/HD/graphics capability by just getting a laptop w/ Windows 7. I do like using the Macbook Pros, though. What is most common at ILR/Cornell as a whole?</p>
<p>Macbook Pro is totally awesome - I have one =D</p>
<p>It’s like the perfect combination of battery life, size, weight, and power.</p>
<p>Do many ILRies double major? or is ILR enough for a student?</p>
<p>At Cornell, you cannot major across colleges. Since ILR is its own college, you cannot double major in ILR and another subject, although you can do a “concentration” (like a minor) in another college, like economics or inequality.</p>
<p>I see. Thanks, RenTheSecond</p>
