Importance of an intellectual passion?

<p>Chocolate ice cream passion … there are entire courses of study built around milk production, milk processing, and milk products such as ice cream! I can see someone who was really passionate about chocolate ice cream extrapolating that to a food science major … or a dairy science major … perhaps even to a restaurant management (ice cream shop!) major. I think I see Cornell on this person’s college list! My crystal ball is really cooking today (no pun intended)!</p>
