BOOK ART PROJECT! (AAP@NYC)

siberiankiss — Wed, 10 Jan 2007 15:37:42 GMT

I remember reading about this a while ago, and now it is finally here! A professor from AAP, Buzz Spector, has created a sculpture entirely composed of books written by Cornellians. it's on display at AAP@NYC (50 W. 17th St., 2nd. Flr., New York, NY) from January 12-19th, 12-6pm.

This should be fun!

flaneuse — Thu, 27 Apr 2006 02:25:51 GMT

Anyone care to offer opinions on CU's new president? I haven't been on campus much so have missed the usual reactions & gossip among students & staff.

I have to admit I liked Lehman. I liked his Call to Engagement, and his making Sustainability one of three campus priorities, and the fact that he was the first alum president. His graduation address was a little loopy, but hey, you can't have everything.

Reactions to NY Times "image" article?

flaneuse — Wed, 03 May 2006 18:43:58 GMT

OK, last try at discussion: Any thoughts on this recent article in the New York Times? My first thought is that it does more harm than good; if Times readers weren't aware that Cornell has a purported image problem, they do now! It's kind of like airing one's dirty laundry.

Hi folks,

FYI, I've created a tribe for current and former affiliates of Cornell's Department of City & Regional Planning, including undergrads (Urban & Regional Studies) program, historic preservation, etc. Related disciplines like archtecture, real estate, landscape architecture, and CIPA welcome too! Spread the word and help us grown.

Hello, introduction

Wed, 31 Mar 2004 17:55:42 GMT

Just join this tribe. A little about me, I went to Cornell in 88, 93-98. I was a dual major in Philosophy and Applied and Engineering Physics. I might have looked a little different back then as I was going by the name of Chris at that time. Anyway, if any of you know me, let's chat.

I need your help

TempO — Wed, 04 Feb 2004 10:41:04 GMT

Hey,

Do any of you know a woman named Sarah Manning? She'd be about 34 right now. She majored in Math and Painting. Anyhow I've lost track of her a while back and wondered if by some freaky stroke of luck anyone knew her.

I'm One of Two....

Eileen — Thu, 30 Oct 2003 19:53:50 GMT

Hello, I'm one of two Cornell Alums in Columbus, Georgia. Both of us were drawn by the local university where we both work. The other alum is much older than I am and works in the biology department while I am a librarian.

When I chose my email address back in 1992, I always hoped I'd meet more Cornellians on the net and wanted to be recognized. Unfortunately, the address dates me as class of '84.
