CORNELL UNIVERSITY — GENERAL DESCRIPTION. 39 



ball grounds, drill grounds, tennis grounds and foot ball 

 grounds, and in spite of the fact that nowhere is the 

 sign ' Keep off the grass ' visible, the turf is generally in 

 perfect condition, in striking contrast to the ill-used ap- 

 pearance of the grass on many college campuses. 



To reach the University grounds visitors, if in car- 

 riages, usually ascend State Street to Eddy, drive around 

 Cascadilla building, and cross the iron bridge over the 

 Cascadilla ravine. If on foot, the route is more often 

 up Seneca, or Buffalo to Eddy. For purposes of descrip- 

 tion it is convenient and usual to take up the build- 

 ings and points of interest as they would present them- 

 selves to one entering the grounds in this way.
