Around Town

Check out the list of student clubs and organizations on the school website to get just the tip of the iceberg. There are concerts and lectures during the year and you can always find someplace to go on the weekends.

There's so much! I can't even begin to list the massive array of activities that are going on literally all the time. You will not have a problem finding things to do, but you might have a problem managing your time and getting your work done between them.

Ithaca is a fairly isolated area, so there isn't the best downtown to go and have fun. If you're an outdoors person, then there are a plethora of trails to go hiking on and many parks to have fun in.

Join a club to keep active, there are plenty to choose from.

Take a walk around Bebe lake. Frat parties and formals. Go see a concert at the State Theatre.

Ithaca Commons has a lot of great restaurants, so definitely go explore those. A lot of people join Greek organizations in spring of their freshman year; social life is largely dominated by Greek life, and I definitely recommend going through the formal recruitment because it is a lot of fun after all. Other than those, there are some bars in Collegetown that are worth checking out as well as hiking trails and parks that are nice to go to when it is warm out.

I like to party as much as I can. Having a social life is a must at Cornell because they academic work can drain you. I also like to go to concerts, performances and banquets that are on campus.

Join a club, sorority/ frat, or group on campus. You'll have a lot more things to do. Also, going to NYC for a weekend is always an option if you don't have too many assignments to do.

GORGES!

Gorge trails!
