GO BIG RED, ALL THE WAY! Once a Cornellian, always a Cornellian
[QUOTE=TuongLaiVietNam;110119]Hymn ! I heard differently :)
Cornell jumped in after Stanford withdrew its bid, definitely not due to financial reason. It was a front runner.
Anyway, I received email notifications from Stanford alumni about this whole bidding business and competition.
But, really, either Cornell or Stanford is fine in my opinion.[/QUOTE]
Well, Cornell has a big advantage, being already in NY, and all.
The $350M gift for Cornell played a crucial part in the Stanford withdrawal, according to NY Times.
[I]"...Cornell’s fundraising edge was a factor in Stanford’s decision to withdraw its bid, The New York Times reported, citing anonymous sources..."[/I]
It's a healthy competition. Cornell has a geopolitical, financial advantage. Stanford is a little too far away.
On weekends, Cornell professors from Ithaca could go down to NYC to teach weekend courses, while Stanford professors could not.
It is not a loss for Stanford, it is just a huge gain for Cornell.
Anyway, please tune in at 2:30, see what they say.
