Letter to the Editor: A statement and challenge to the IC Board of Trustees
I am deeply concerned about the carve-out of television and cinema studies from the Roy H. Park School of Communications. I do not believe the Ithaca College Board of Trustees understands how integrated all areas of study within the Park School of Communications are, not only within the school but within the media industry itself.

Corning defense seals victory over state-ranked Horseheads
A combination of tough running, explosively efficient passing, clutch special teams, and big-time defense carried Corning to a 24-22 victory over state-ranked Horseheads in a Section 4 high school football game on Friday, Oct. 23 at Horseheads High School. The Hawks stopped a potential tying 2-point conversion with 2 minutes, 35 seconds left after Bryce Thomas ran 69 yards for a Horseheads touchdown to bring the Blue Raiders within two. Corning then thwarted an onside kick and put the game away on Keegan Kelly's 17-yard run on second down. "Everybody contributed. That was the best part. Everybody was on their 'A' game today," said Corning's John Graham, who had touchdown receptions of 28 and 63 yards on the only two passes thrown by Hawks quarterback Nathan Bretch. Kelly carried 24 times for 114 yards, including a 3-yard touchdown on the game's opening drive. Graham rushed 12 times for 61 yards.

Homecoming With Limitations: Rallying The Cornell Spirit in Trying Times
It’s no secret that identifying as a Cornellian has become a complicated matter in the last month. Following Jane Doe’s civil lawsuit and allegations of gang rape at the Chi Phi fraternity house in 2024, Cornell has been under immense public scrutiny for its handling of the case. Mass social media campaigns have condemned not only University administration but anyone and anything associated with the school. Whether it be comments on TikToks posted by members of the Cornell Women’s Hockey team or attacks on students’ posts that simply admire the autumn foliage of campus, Cornell students often find themselves vilified for choosing to pursue their education at this institution. In these circumstances, many feel increasingly unsure of how they should possess any semblance of school pride.
