I have always felt that the Cornell Store does not offer the greatest selection of Cornell-themed gifts and merchandise. The sweatshirt logos and tie designs always seemed vaguely uninspired and do little or nothing to capture the stature or importance of Ezra's Universirty.
Yet, just recently I realized that the Cornell Store is missing an entire product line that would be invaluable to improving the image of the University: scarves.
Perhaps I may just have a skewed perspective on this matter, having attended Lady Margaret Hall, which is a part of the very scarf-friendly University of Oxford, or now residing very near to the crimson scarf infested Harvard, but I feel that every college or university should have a scarf with which undergaduates can use to keep warm. The Ithaca climate kind of requires one, doesn't it?
But all the Cornell Store offers is this half-hearted 'Women's Scarf' - which I would not want to be seen wearing out in public.
