Cornell has NO STATE COLLEGES. It has several schools that are run under contract with the state.
As such, the state specifies tuition.
As a "land grant college," the entire operation has a rather close relation with the state. But it's 100% private.
Re: Ivy League 2023
Cornell is a land grant college. So is MIT and Tuskegee.
In the four contracted colleges admission standards are less onerous for in-state students, in-state tuition is available for in state students etc.
Cornell would recruit some athletes into the contract schools for that reason when i was in college. The lax team would occasionally get some lax players from Farmingdale ( hope that is the right one). A few first teamers. Other schools referred to it as a farm school. MIT is pretty good company to be in.

Whatever the reality is, it only works as an effective "donkey punch" to Cornell folks becuase they seem to care too much about protecting and declaring their private status.

What's accurate is how little respect you treat others with regularly. But for a person to have value others have to care. I don't with respect to you.
Technical and domain knowledge have little value when one doesn't understand humanity...accuracy is often a myth, eleganat mathematical models that never accurately reflect what happens in reality. Some people miss the point completely...

I don't think there's any need to be defensive, at least in terms of my intent. It had nothing to do with any sort of criticism; never occurred to me.
From a lax perspective, I, too, recall that Cornell was able to pull a few players into those colleges. Helped, at least in eras past...I'd think it might still?
It also helps that the AI is calculated on the entire undergrad body, which enables CU to have a slightly lower AI than any of the other Ivies. But it's still darn high, so no need to be defensive.
Re: Ivy League 2023
Who's defensive? Everything you wrote above is true. I didn't like Farfrom's unnecessary assertion that Cornell guys are "defensive" about the fact that Cornell is contracted to operate a number of schools for the state. We just like it expressed correctly, as Ezra did. We understand the advantage it gives in recruiting within New York.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Thu Nov 03, 2022 8:51 pmJust to be clear, I didn't mind Ezra's correction a bit...the "sigh" was unnecessary, but the correction was appreciated at least by me.

The lax team would occasionally get some lax players from Farmingdale ( hope that is the right one). A few first teamers. Other schools referred to it as a farm school. MIT is pretty good company to be in.

I don't think there's any need to be defensive, at least in terms of my intent. It had nothing to do with any sort of criticism; never occurred to me.
From a lax perspective, I, too, recall that Cornell was able to pull a few players into those colleges. Helped, at least in eras past...I'd think it might still?
It also helps that the AI is calculated on the entire undergrad body, which enables CU to have a slightly lower AI than any of the other Ivies. But it's still darn high, so no need to be defensive.
