Members of the Cornell and Ithaca communities may also attend the popular free concerts on the Arts Quad. Some 2,000 people, most of them Cornell University students, are expected to register for the summer courses, according to Cathy Pace, registrar of the School of Continuing Education and Summer Sessions. Our school opens the university's doors to traditional and nontraditional students in the summer. A Cornell undergraduate may have a retired corporate executive sitting on one side and a high school junior on the other. Some 750 high school students are expected for Cornell's Summer College, and approximately 150 adults and 100 youngsters will take noncredit seminars each week during July through Cornell's Adult University, which includes four one-week sessions on subjects ranging from writing and theater to natural history.
Many people come to campus year after year to participate.
