Cornell was once an esteemed University.
It has become, in the last 40+ years a bedrock of left wing, socialist thought. Ithaca, where Cornell is located, is a place that you should avoid if you desire a peaceful life.
Ithaca is one of the cities of “upstate New York,” that is similar to any of the five boroughs of NYC. Socialism is worshipped there, beware!!!
If you drive about twenty miles west of Ithica you will be in a different world.
Mennonites drive down country roads with horses and carriages.
My MIL lives out there—it has to be seen to be believed.
