Cornell University

My Cornell experience is priceless

We complain about our workloads, and make fun of our football team, but when challenged, there is not one of us who will not passionately insist that our school is, in fact, the very best. We wear our overpriced university clothing in pride, and the mention that a person attended Cornell automatically places them in our favor. The campus is breathtakingly gorgeous and the surrounding city is a perfect blend of small-town coziness and big-city sophistication. In no other place do blue and white collars blend so beautifully. And never in my life have I seen so many different people, with such diverse backgrounds and ambitions combine together so magically. I graduate this weekend and take with me the wisdom of brilliant professors, the most wonderful friends, and memories that will sty with me eternally. I may have had to pay for my education, but my Cornell experience is priceless.
