Answer
One of the non-school-related reasons I chose Cornell was Ithaca's location. I love hiking, and there are hundreds of trails near Cornell. Some of my favorites are hikes around Cayuga Lake, the Black Diamond Trail, and Treman State Park, which has a two-mile uphill hike called the Gorge Trail that takes you to Lucifer Falls, the biggest and fastest-moving waterfall I've ever seen (and I've hiked all around Oregon and Hawai'i)!
