Tele-Lecture?

By Sakina Walsh JGSM '10

Three years ago, Ryan Morris was a Cornell undergrad furiously scribbling lecture notes he didn't quite understand. An engineering student, Ryan was also an athlete and as a result of schedule conflicts, he often had no choice but to miss class.

By Jenn Li JGSM '10

It's also time to remember that there are more options for dining out than CTB, Rulloff's or Apollo. Here is a guide on places to eat (on the parents' dime): Moosewood Restaurant (215 N.
