But we did not quite complete a full circle: we are yet to mow our lawn. If our T. As an underclassmen, I envisioned adulthood at Cornell and off-campus life as one and the same. Am I an adult because I started cooking for myself? This is far from the truth. Am I an adult for paying with a card instead of Big Red Bucks?
Now, just a few weeks removed from University housing and a meal plan, I realize that choosing to opt-in or out of Cornell housing and dining has little to. In this sense, Cornell, as with many other colleges, does little to change the trajectory into adulthood one would otherwise take; The ways in which we perceive and approach adulthood within the American college landscape cannot be summarized by opting-out of a meal plan subscription.
I primarily noticed how gradual this shift into adulthood is when I visited family in Israel this past summer. There, all young adults serve in the military after high school for several years. Whereas year-old me spends his day moving from class-to-class, essay-to-exam, my parents and their siblings spent their early 20s in intense boot camps, or on duty. Towards the end of my visit, I spoke to my uncle, who, following his military service, spontaneously bought a ticket to South America where he lived and travelled for a year, until he decided to return.
I was inspired by his stories of authentic, non-touristy experiences that he sought out himself, something that a university simply cannot afford to its students.
And although such trips are not feasible or appealing to everyone, the point stands that we cannot rely solely on Cornell to turn us into adults. We need to see the world outside of the Hill.

State Street and cornellsun. Class of , thank you for letting us on The Sun share four years with you. It was the unpaid internship of a lifetime. It will be the answer to many interview questions. It will be the place some of us learned the most. But through it all, it was a family, an experience, a challenge, and a once-in-a-lifetime trip around The Sun.
Congratulations Class of , we cannot wait to see how brightly you shine. When I had to call the shots on something, I wondered if the swarm of talented people in the newsroom was actually convinced by my reasonings, or if they were just being nice.
So after joining The Sun, I had one goal: I wanted to prove that I can be a good reporter despite growing up without any notion of the free press, for which I have no defense to provide. But then it quickly became something more. As I scoured the campus for stories, I found that neither the uniqueness that comes with my identity or the animosity against it has been given the attention it deserves. I found that although The Sun is already much more diverse than many professional newsrooms out there, our focus is still disproportionately set on the select few already bathing in spotlight, all the while the underrepresented minority faculty are fighting against racial bias, the history of LGBTQ activism at Cornell is getting dusty on the shelf and the college experience shared by almost one-fifth of this community has never been made aware to the other 80 percent.
Their stories are not being told. Then I decided I want to be that person. In some ways, journalism became my first taste at activism. Andrea: Thanks for all the cakes and cookies, the knowing winks about Hamilton and Captain America: The Winter Soldier, the late-night conversations, and for being the best roommate and friend anyone could ask for.
Anu and Sarah, and the th News Board: Meeting you was the best thing that happened to me at Cornell. The caffeine- and Shortstop sandwich-charged nights at W State St. And finally, Prof. It was from September 27, , over a century ago, and it captured the very essence of my experience as a Cornellian. It is a wholesome existence with room for work and play, room for thought but little thoughtlessness. But this you surely realize in a day.
The future will, as it has for all before, fashion as you desire. Only the broad boundaries have been laid, and within this University sphere is room for your rosiest prospect, if you but work aright. It is tough. It requires immense focus and determination. Yet, the opportunity to attend this University, and all of the possibilities that it opens up, have made it well worth it. Over the course of college, I have studied so many fascinating subjects, pondered so many difficult questions and met so many kind and dedicated friends and acquaintances.
I have been constantly inspired by my fellow Sun editors, writers and staff, my classmates and my professors. They are the reason for the unforgettable experiences I have had at Cornell, and they deserve the utmost gratitude. To Cornell, then, I say thank you. Thank you to my peers, my professors, my advisors, the T.
Thank you to all those, past and present, who have made Cornell what it is. Thank you to all who will surely keep Cornell the special place it must be, well after our Class of has left its halls. While I cannot spend my last day as an undergraduate wearing a cap and gown and eagerly celebrating on campus, wide-eyed and thrilled just as I had been as a freshman, I am humbled and grateful for all of the memories I made at this challenging and wonderful place.
Of course, the University itself is imperfect; much reform remains to be done, and changes are required to ensure that every student can have a positive experience. Together, we and our fellow Cornellians can and should make that possible. And the words written by the author of that editorial all those years ago, facing extreme uncertainty just like us—a few short years later the world would be engulfed in war—can help tie together the loose ends that remain. As we end our college years already scattered to the wind, we can turn to the determined Cornellian spirit developed through hard work and cold winters.
Whatever comes next, our experiences at Cornell and our solidarity as a graduating class can help us get through. I left as a cynical, pessimistic senior with bags under my eyes, filled with a sense of overwhelming fear about what the future would bring. Not exactly the profound character development I had been hoping for. I joined The Sun on a whim during my first semester of college, attending the information session in a large auditorium in Goldwin-Smith.
I had never written an article before, and I suddenly found myself constantly reporting on a variety of topics, talking with students, faculty and community members I otherwise never would have met. As a news editor, I went from writing content to assigning content, realizing just how much work goes on behind the scenes to keep The Sun going. Stories would fall through at the last minute and breaking news would occur when least expected, so front pages would have to be redesigned.
It was enlightening to see how campus life evolved over the last century and a half, and it was humbling to realize that we were all just a small part of something much bigger than ourselves. I never imagined joining the editorial board when I first arrived at Cornell, but I am honored to have been a small ray of sunshine that contributed to such a star of an institution. One of the quotes that stood out to me while digging through the archives is this one from Sun editor E.
In fact it was commonly predicted that it would not last a month, a week. The Sun definitely lasted more than a week or a month, becoming an integral institution that persisted through previous epidemics and world wars and even endured a factional split that briefly produced two Suns in And the reason The Sun has survived. On my flight to Ithaca in the fall of , I read the paper copy of the entire freshman issue of The Sun, feeling that it so appropriately captured my feelings of anticipation, and entered campus proud to be a Cornellian.
On my flight out of Ithaca in the spring of , I scrolled through the headlines on The Sun app on my phone before switching it to airplane mode of course , feeling that it so appropriately covered all the continuing chaos, and left campus proud to be a Cornellian. I watched my last sunset on the slope, thinking that I would be back there again soon for a final Slope Day.
I said casual goodbyes to various peers and acquaintances, thinking I would see them again soon at graduation. Yet despite the way it all ended, I still feel lucky that I found so many people, places and memories that made me proud to be a Cornellian. The Class of will forever be impacted by what we experienced on and off campus. But we were a small part of something bigger than ourselves, we were each rays of sunshine that helped make Cornell the shining star that it is, was and will continue to be.
Some of my favorite memories of college will definitely include undertaking midnight snack runs to Shortstop Deli When I first got to Cornell, I followed the advice that almost all of us receive and tried new things. I signed up for way too many listservs at Club Fest and attended a lot of G-bodies as that excited freshman during the first semester.
The Sun is unlike any other organization on this campus. So while I still do not want to be a journalist — between the numerous correction emails, trips to Shortstop, long conversations in KG42, and page redesigns minutes away from deadline — I found that community that I was looking for.
But there is something for everyone at this organization, and if you give it a chance, it may end up taking you by surprise. These last two months have taught me that life is unpredictable and what matters most, is the people who stick by you as you go through the cliched ups and downs.
To the news crew of people often look back at the year they spend as managing editor as some of their worst semesters at Cornell — constantly stressful, filled with correction emails and the burden of running The Sun weighing heavily on their shoulders. While I did get my fair share of all that, the people I shared this experience with made it a time to remember fondly.
Each and every one of you brought something so different to the table, but over the course of endless hours of desking, wine nights and movies, you all became the support structure that I never knew I needed.
Thank you for an amazing year, and for some of my best Cornell memories. Thank you for being there whenever I needed you. Thanks for making sure that our favorite college daily is still thriving. Sarah, thank you for taking the organization to new heights after I managed to stumble through the year I was in charge. Maryam, I know that with you in charge The Sun is in safe hands even in its most uncertain times.
You will never cease to inspire me; thank you for not saying no to writing articles before your orgo prelims, and hope you can keep up the tradition of ordering Thai food for the entire newsroom. Thanks for letting me turn the house into a Sun annex. College without you guys would have been a lot less entertaining, and definitely filled with much less knowledge about FIFA.
The news is an exciting, and simple, proposition. If you can just find the relevant information and get it out to the people in a compelling way, you can make life better! Even joining The Sun to spout baseless opinions in the Arts section, playing a role in this great truth-seeking endeavor was inspiring. I was in awe every day by the diligence and courage that went into every news story that The Sun published. I was also in awe, but in the scared way instead of the good way, every day, of the amount of work I had committed myself to doing as an editor of The Sun.
The and public accountability is necessary to a functioning best dramatization of a newsroom, though, is the democracy, but in my time since editing The Sun, I feel Sun office. But their cious. And I am sure, no matter how acerbic my offhand comments about the workload are, I am better for my time spent at West State Street.
I worked with dozens of other editors who were all astonishingly bright and conscientious, and dozens of writers whose reflections and analyses and knowledge changed the way I move through the world. It was a privilege to have a job working with such good people and reading such interesting writing. Finally, there are many people outside of The Sun who do invaluable work to keep it running.
I am so appreciative of my parents, as well. To all of you, and for all of that, thank you. Charlene Lilyann Hsu Eric Y. Ovadia Adeyemi A. Karasz, Jr. Mowry Taina B. Barbosa F. Switzer Lucas G.
