Last Saturday, thanks to Rose House, I have the precious opportunity to learn about how to save a life in emergency situation: We got the CPR training. The demo from the staff of Cornell Emergency Medical Service was very friendly and helpful. We had roughly 5 procedures for CPR. Every time one procedure was taught, the staff looked around the guided us. What interested me a lot is that the staff is a junior student, not some full time staff as I thought before. This provokes my thought that the huge potential a student can achieve and contribute to the saving of lives in emergency situations. The staff, who is a junior student, is very professional in emergency saving skills and also demonstrated us his skills very explicitly.

This enlightens me to think about the best part of Cornell: it offers students various opportunities to dig into different fields. “Any person, any study” is not only in classroom: it is also something outside of classroom, like CPR training. We may forget some specific knowledge we learn in classroom, but we will never forget that we can save someone’s live in real life.
