There is one reason he posted this, and we all know what it is.

He wanted to go to a school who already had an offensive coordinator

Can he sing? Here Comes Treble is by far the preeminent acapella group on campus.

Wonder if a white kid from LA with an identical resume would get in?

It's pronounced "colonel", and it's the highest rank in the military.

Good for that young man. From a financial perspective, probably not the best move. Going to have to take out a lot of loans for undergrad, then even more for Vet school. I wish him luck and would like to see more kids get excited about their future.

Cornell ranks 20th nationally in starting salary for graduates. It is a VERY good school. If this young man chooses a good major, he will be on his way to a great career.

Who would want a vet that went to Cornell? I think they're only qualified to work on Great Danes and purse dogs. I want a vet that had to jack off a horse as an undergrad.

Seriously, I am not going to hate.. Its good to see that. Glad to see any kid achieve something like this, its not easy to get into an ivy league school.
