Ladies and Gentlemen… the Sky is Falling!

Emergency preparations must be made at once! Zombie hoards are sure to follow…

But no, really, orientation does feel kind of like that sometimes. It’s absolutely bewildering and I’m trying to figure out if college is really that different or if it’s just another level–much like the switch into high school.

The above has most likely spoken for itself, but my name is Sarah, and I’m a freshman in the House this year. Meredith recommended posting an introduction and a few random things to give an idea of what House life is actually like… which would be cool because I’ve heard some very strange things from the few people who know what the House is.  I mean… if you want the three pillars we live by, you can check the “About” button above. If you have more in-depth questions (i.e “why?”)… I’m not sure I can answer those very well. We’re striving to become better citizens. Like most people, I think we harbor a vision of being leaders in our various fields someday.

So as I come to understand what it means to be a part of this community… I’ll try and get it across to all of you, okay? It’s all a learning process.

Open House

Hi, I’m Daniel, a dissertating PhD candidate in Government. I’ve had the privilege of living here at Telluride House for quite some time, and by now, it’s hard for me to think back on my grad school experience at Cornell without also thinking of Telluride. Living here can be intense, and it requires some commitment — but it’s more than worth it, and I wouldn’t give it up for anything. Anyway, I’m co-responsible for organizing the upcoming Open House (on Tuesday, September 16th from 5:00-6:30pm), and I’d like to encourage you to stop by if you think you may be interested in living here. If you can’t make it, or find out about us after the Open House, you can still access the application on this website. Of course, feel free to ask us if you have any questions.
