Campus Groups Involvements
Cornell has over 700 registered student organizations, from Ultimate Frisbee teams to international student unions. Whether you’re a dedicated outdoors type, interested in student government, or looking for volunteer opportunities, there is sure to be a student group (or two) for you. For a complete list of registered student organizations, visit http://sao.cornell.edu/.
The Program in Real Estate features several ways for you to get involved and strengthen your connection to the program and other real estate professionals. Foremost among these is the Associate Real Estate Council, composed of students, staff, and faculty from the Program in Real Estate, the Johnson Graduate School of Management, the School of Hotel Administration, and the College of Architecture, Art, and Planning. The group hosts guest lecturers, fosters student research, and organizes trips to real estate related seminars, conferences, and development projects. The group is open to anyone who is interested; for more information visit http://realestate.cornell.edu/arec.
In addition to AREC, there are a number of committees composed of Program in Real Estate students that focus on program- and career-related issues, such as the website, publicity, publications, and social and networking events.
The program’s premier publication, the Cornell Real Estate Review, is the only entirely student-managed scholarly real estate journal in the country. The editorial board consists of a second year Executive Editor and three to four assistant editors, selected by the outgoing editorial board and the program director. Students are encouraged to submit articles, reviews, and collateral materials for web or print publication. Opportunities exist for current students to collaborate with a professor or practicing professional to write an article for submission; in addition, articles may be submitted for one of two annual prizes awarded at the decision of a review committee.
