That's correct.... We've got a team, and we're currently planning for next year. The team is between Ithaca High School and Cornell University, and we will be seeking one or more major corporate sponsors as well. Feel free to send me an email at
prd8@cornell.edu for more information.
As far as other opportunities at Cornell, there is the FSAE racecar, Robocup, Robohockey, BRAIN, as well as several other automotive teams. Many of these teams are very difficult to become involved with (especially for freshmen), due to the enormous number of students trying to join each team. However, since FIRST is very new here, there is still plenty of room for involvement on our team!
I look forward to meeting you this fall.

: Cornell and Ithaca High had a rookie team this year (639 I think). It was founded by Patrick Dingle, a Team 190 Alum.
