“The sheer range and diversity of academic and extracurricular opportunities at Cornell might seem like an amusing perk or prerogative to some. To me, it represents a world of unimaginable resources which I never thought I would have access to. I came to Cornell with the intention of exploring as many new things as I possibly could, and that has been my main extracurricular activity.”
