Cornell University was fortunate enough to have Shimon Peres, former prime minister of Israel, Nobel Peace prize winner, and a current senior statesman of Israel, talk on campus. The experience of sitting in front of such a prominent politician was amazing in and of itself. Add to that, the well-organized, methodical speech he gave and [...]
I sat in my Giants foldable chair stunned in disbelief. I had rushed my parents in getting me back to Cornell before 4:15pm on Sunday after my Thanksgiving break so I could watch the Giants play the Titans only to wind up extremely depressed for the entire night after the Giants blew a 21 point [...]

So far this semester I’ve been constantly thinking about how I’m supposed to go about finding an internship for the summer.
