For resume-filling, I just can’t recall anyone ever using rock-climbing as a ‘line’.

I’d be curious if they had some Latino rock climbing expert...especially at Cornell.

There are a few professional rock climbers on American Ninja Warrior. Contestants are very lucky to actually win money.

As far as I can tell, there is no fan base (unlike football, basketball, baseball, etc.) that pays for tickets. As far as I can tell, professional rock climbers are salesmen/saleswomen for rock climbing equipment.

I haven’t paid that close attention but I would not agree that so-called BIPOC’s are underrepresented. The only one that immediately comes to mind is Meghan Martin (definitely part black, maybe identifies as completely black).

I identify as transparent. I can see veins and arteries all over. Where does that put me?

Cornell, another University that one does not take the diploma at face value. Check the courses and the grades, “Rock climbing” is the new “basket weaving,” in the “Ivies.”
Ithaca is a shit town anyway, go somewhere else.

They might be able to hire a Latino wall-climbing expert, if they stop by the Home Depot parking lot. :)
