Cornell

Where it comes from

From Cornwall, spelling conflated with the Latin family name Cornelius.

proper noun

  1. A surname.
  2. Any of a number of towns in English-speaking countries.
  3. Cornell University Admittedly, Cornell does offer courses such as CHEM 1007 (Academic support), CHEM 1560 (Intro to Gen Chem) and CHEM 1729 (Solve it!) as precursors or supports to 2070, but they are still not adequate to address the inequity created by 2070’s weed-out methodology.
  4. A male given name.
