To all Cornell haters

when I read number 3, I actually thought you meant the Ivy League sports at first. I think it’s really cool how we have excellent D1 athletes but they are still forced to be students and are not ridiculously pampered.

touting the free t-shirts makes me think you’re like offering a gift pack at a radio station or something…I don’t really think that’s enhanced my life all that much relative to, say, working in a lab year round, or talking with my often fascinating classmates.

I don’t perceive much Cornell hate, or even dislike or snobbery or anything. being from upstate NY, most people I know either say really positive things about Ithaca in general or say “nice, that’s a really good school” of Cornell in particular.
