Does American Studies Association have guts to boycott Cornell too?

Cornell anti-Israel boycott group uses Israeli software for its website

Posted by William A. Jacobson on November 27, 2013 15 Comments

It’s hard being a principled member of the anti-Israel Boycott, Divest and Sanction movement. With Israel being a leader in computer, medical and other technologies, one would have to enter a time machine back to the 1950s to truly boycott Israeli products. The Cornell Students...

The Cornell Review, the conservative newspaper on campus, has a long history of serving up great interns for Legal Insurrection. You may remember Kathleen McCaffrey who was the first Legal Insurrection writer (other than me) and to whom we bid farewell in May 2012 after...

Fake “government shutdown” notice at Cornell

Posted by William A. Jacobson on October 02, 2013 22 Comments

In addition to the real shutdowns at the WWII Memorial and elsewhere, we can expect to see all sorts of non-shutdowns blamed on the federal government partial shutdown. I noticed this along a path in the Collegetown section of Ithaca, a path along the Gorge...

Cornell’s Tech Campus Irks Pro-Palestine Group

Posted by Kathleen McCaffrey on February 08, 2012 18 Comments

Last month, Cornell celebrated a successful bid for a NYC-based tech campus. The win is a big boost for Cornell’s standing and opportunities for undergraduates. Since the announcement, though, I’ve been waiting for thing to “get political.” Frankly, I’m surprised it took so long…. As...

OccupyCornell, part two.

Posted by Kathleen McCaffrey on November 12, 2011 6 Comments

I, alongside my friends from the libertarian and Republican clubs, went to the OccupyCornell weekly meeting yesterday afternoon. It was a tremendous departure from the “real” OccupyWallStreet and, thus, far more tolerable. However, it was still pretty pathetic. Here’s why: What are these guys protesting?...
