Cornell College is a unique liberal arts college in Iowa. We teach classes One Course At A Time and have nothing to do with Cornell University. #CornellCollege
- Cornell College Trustee Harper Reed '01 has been named as one of the Tech 50 in Crain’s Chicago Business -- a 10th edition of the list composed mostly of all-stars! The article says, “Reed, 42, is one of Chicago’s most celebrated technologists.” Congrats @harper!
- Dozens of boxes of gloves are going to Linn County Emergency Management from Russell Science Center. We are wishing the best to all of our health care workers -- stay safe!
- The Richard and Norma Small Athletic and Wellness Center (the SAW) is officially open! Crews are adding finishing touches inside and getting workout equipment set up, and coaches are moving in. Thanks to all of our donors who made this a possibility! #CornellRams #GoRams
- Presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg is speaking at Cornell College this afternoon as part of a candidate visit series to which all eligible candidates are invited.
- We’d like to set the record straight: We got here first. Cornell College was founded in 1853, 15 years before the similarly named university opened in 1868. How else do we compare? Let us count the ways. #cornellcollege #cornellreport ow.ly/6Zrx50CytCF
- We have some sad news to pass along. Head Wrestling Coach Michael Duroe has died. Duroe dedicated the past 13 years to helping student-athletes become their best selves on and off the mats and will be deeply missed by our campus community. news.cornellcollege.edu/2018/07/coach-…
- Future Cornell students: Cornell College will not penalize any applicant who is disciplined for participation in a civil protest. This has always been our policy, and we will continue to make admission decisions on the entirety of a student's application.
- In Iowa, we all help each other in times of need. A big thank you to the facilities team from @UDubuque for spending the day weeding and mowing on campus as our facilities crew focuses on storm repairs!
- We're getting excited as construction crews start adding the final touches to the renovated and expanded Richard and Norma Small Athletic and Wellness Center (the SAW)! Here's a photo of the new cardio area with a portion of the equipment installed.
- Repairs are underway following last week's storm. Contractors with about 10 companies are on campus to restore services for the school year. Thank you to all of the contractors! The Sport Center looks great following roof repairs & debris removal. (See before & after picture)
- In this week's coach's philosophy, we feature Women’s Basketball Coach Brent Brase. He has a Team Together approach. Spending time together on and off the court produces lifelong friendships, intense competitiveness, & a deeper meaning to being part of the program. @coachbrase
- Our wrestling team is strong, but now they're in a match of a different kind. Along with all of us at Cornell, they're supporting Coach Mike Duroe in his battle against cancer. Many will celebrate Coach this weekend. For more info. on the event contact [email protected].
