Around Town

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!

Campus activities, intramural sports, extracurricular clubs in every college and major, club sports, Division 1 varsity sports, fraternities, sororities, dancing, more restaurants per capita than New York City- so many fun restaurants to explore!

The natural beauty of Cornell's campus should be enjoyed: hiking, trail running, skiing galore! The Ithaca Commons hosts local events such as Apple Festival in the fall and Chili Festival in the winter. There isn't a whole lot of shopping available, but Ithaca is only a 4-5 hour bus ride from NYC.

There is so much to do at Cornell. Clubs, sports (intramural co-ed water polo team, anyone?), and hanging out will friends will fill most of your need for fun. If you want to do something away from campus, the city bus can get you close to anything you could think of doing.

Gorge jumping, hanging out with friends, visiting college town.

Ithaca's a small town, but there still are a few things to do. The farmer's market in town is great and has a ton of wonderful food and products to buy. There's also the Apple Festival in the fall. On campus, there are always dances, presentations, speeches, and club activities going on, so as long as you pay attention to your e-mail, you will find something to do.

Hang out in Collegetown, go to dance/theater/choir performances, see movies at Cornell Cinema (they play movies every night), and there is a pretty prominent Greek life, so even if you're not interested in going Greek there are always frat parties to go to on weekends.
