Synopsis

It's not surprising that a world-class university like Cornell and the uber-powerful agricultural lobby can combine to thoroughly crush the most marginalized and unrepresented sector of New York State's population. It's also not surprising that no one is willing to stand up for us.

When Cornell's rural policy planner publicly stated that no one but farmers "deserved to live there," she helped lay the groundwork for Tompkins County's most recent "vision of the future" one in which the present rural community no longer exists.

With an elitist policymaking that has closer ties to the Khmer Rouge than the Constitution, Tompkins County is a college destination with the sort of moral compass that lands people a spot on American Greed.

What is The Secret Cornell?

It's a betrayal of trust that makes the College Admissions Scandal seem like throat-clearing at a political rally.
