<p>There are quite a few ILRies at top law schools, and I know three who are first-years at HLS now. One faculty member even refers to them as “The Cornell Three” because they know their stuff when it comes to labor (ironically, there’s a Cornell student from CAS in the class too, but isn’t labeled as one of the “Cornell Three”).
Truly, ILR might be the very best major at Cornell if your goal is to enter a top law or mba program. But if you’re miserable in ILR or aren’t doing well, then it’s also likely that studying one of the core social science disciplines in CAS would be better for you.</p>
