Leaderboard 2When I found out about the Cornell swim test, I was somewhat surprised and certainly not excited. It does make me wonder, however, why Cornell opts to help us swim and not sink literally, but leaves us to our own devices in many metaphorical ways. Yet, I have also heard stories where students think they can cook pasta by stirring the water with the pasta in it without heat for 45 minutes. I’m not expecting Cornell to churn out master chefs — I’m a massive fan of “struggle stir fries” like those mentioned in Katherine Yao’s op-ed Cooking Poorly. That being said: Struggle Stir Fry 1101 anyone?
