A Modest Proposal for Dealing with ‘Non-Ivy’ Colleges

Kate Tucci  —  Mar 11, 2009

When I first heard Ann Coulter’s declaration that the College of Arts and Sciences was “the only Ivy League school at Cornell,” I was completely surprised. I did not realize that, according to Ms. Coulter’s definition, the whole of Cornell University itself was not an Ivy League institution. Now that I have been made fully aware of the situation, I think it is time that the students at the other colleges stand up and demand the treatment they deserve as “non-Ivy” students. I suggest that the only true differences between the Ivy League schools and other institutions of education are the Division I sports league, the expected workload, and the exclusive nature of being an “Ivy League” student.

Ann Coulter '84 was right. The Ag School is nothing but a bunch of dairy farmers and plant growers with low SAT scores. In fact, the only worthwhile things to come out of CALS are some self-important fratastic AEM majors and the Dairy Bar. Yum! Delicious ice cream! But it’s winter now, and the Dairy Bar is closed, so all we’re left with is a bunch of kids who pop their collars and wear pink shirts. But what about the other schools? Well, let’s find out ...

ILR

Known for reading books about unions, communism, anarchism and also for protesting sweatshops, ILRies have ought to change their acronym to “I Love Rioting.” Industry is dead anyway, we’re guessing labor is too. As for relations, you guys can all go ILRcest in the basement of Ives.
