Inode, > Do you consider there is no difference from a Berkeley graduate as compared with UCLA or UC Davis?

The UC system is composed of ten different universities.

Cornell isn't a system of universities. It IS a university. There is only one campus, and both the Ag school and the Engineering school are on it. Different quads, though. I remember biking between the two.

No way I could bike between UC Berkeley and UCLA, for instance.

Lots of my Cornell friends who went pre-med attended that school for obvious reasons, including to save on tuition. They are Cornell alum just as much as I am, and anyone who claims otherwise is blowing smoke.

Do you consider there is no difference from a Berkeley graduate as compared with UCLA or UC Davis?


The relationship between Cornell and its AG college is not too dissimiliar to SU and its relationship with its state college of forestry. People who graduated from the forestry school were considered SU grads but also were considered to be grads of the SUNY system as well. In fact that dual graduation is where the similarity with Cornell's Ag school ends. Having said that, regular SU students considered the forestry students to be lesser.....because they were more nerdy. That's probably a similar reaction Coulter has to the Ag students at Cornell.
