Cornell

1. an elite Ivy League college often scorned by the other Ivies for having an "easy" admission rate, a fallacy that many people tend to buy. At 11% (2019-20), Cornell's admission rate is, in reality, one of the most selective schools in the United States and in the English-speaking world. By comparison, the admission rates of the most prestigious UK schools such as Cambridge and Oxford are at 15-20%.

2. The only Ivy that doesn't issue a diploma inscribed in Latin. Until this day schools with a long historical standing like Harvard, Dartmouth, Yale, Brown, Penn, Princeton and Columbia still issue fancy Latin diplomas. Whereas younger colleges like UChicago, Stanford and MIT founded since the late 19th century only issue modern English diplomas.

3. One of the most comprehensive universities. Like Harvard and Penn, Cornell has all the major schools including Law School, Business School, Medical School, School of Engineering, School of Design, and the College of Arts and Sciences

Cornell Goggles

The way men rate women at Cornell University, usually in the Binary Scale either being a 1 (you will do her), or a 0 (you will not do her) in comparison to the 1-10 scale found anywhere else in the world.

Beer Goggles inhibited by a place, not a beverage.
Guy 1: "hey man check out the hottie who just walked out of Goldwin Smith"
Guy 2: "are you serious? she's a 0 take off your cornell goggles"
Guy 1: "i've been here so long, i'd do her"
Guy 2: "i probably would too"

Chontelle

Very loud individuals who have low self esteem because of it. Most people consider Chontelles to be funny, and great to hang around, but they are often left out of activities. Chontelles are creative people, with a talent for the written word. They also love books and reading. Chontelles are prone to addictions but over time will get over them. Chontelles are genuine and a tad quirky, with an overall weakness for air guitaring.
Chontelle, can you keep it down, I can't hear my music through my headphones.
