Re: Worcester v. Rochester v. CORNELL!

Other on team #639, Red B^2, from Ithaca High School and Cornell University. In Reply to: Re: Worcester v. Rochester v. CORNELL! Posted by Matt Leese on 2/9/2001 9:46 PM EST: : Hrm....let's take a look at the differences between Cornell and RIT again: : : Wait, wait, wait. Why go to RIT or WPI when you can go to Cornell! Here's a list of reasons: : : 1) It's easier to spell than Wista and Rochestah (excuse my accent, I was born in Wista.) : So shouldn't it be Cahnell? Good point... but, but, but... It's only one word! : : 2) We have a FIRST robotics team : So do we. Former National Champions too (1996). Yeah, well.... We've never NOT won a National Competition! : : 3) The school is not located in a town that contradicts the name of the school. : We're in the Rochester metro area. Good enough for me. And if you really wanna know why we're in Henrietta as opposed to Rochester, it's because RIT used to be downtown and then the state wanted to put a highway through the campus. Oops. : : 4) You don't get nearly as much snow as rochester or worcester. (no lake effect like rochester, or nor' easters like worcester). We currently have 0" : Yeah, but cold without snow is wasted. It was definately up to 50 degrees today ![]() : : 5) You get to run down a very steep hill like a madman whenever you want to visit the local high school (and they usually give us rides back up!) : We have no hills so there are no hills to walk up to get to class. And you do not have the opportunity to take dining trays from the dining halls and slide down the hill after classes (when it does snow). Patrick |
