I will be attending the Jan 31st info session! Any must-does around town (or not in town)? I'm taking my husband so I want to explore and get a good feel for the area (and hopefully get him excited about the area)
If the weather isn't treacherous, I would try to see some of the gorges, waterfalls, etc. You really don't even have to leave the campus to see some of them. (The undergraduate campus, that is. But it's all within walking distance of the vet campus.) And I honestly recommend checking out the whole campus on foot - it is absolutely stunning even at this time of year.
As far as activities in town, go walk around the Commons and check out the shops. Plenty of great eats and bars to be had (I recommend pretty much everything )
Honestly, Ithaca is not a bustling city, so don't expect tons of museums or art galleries, although there are some small venues around town. It's a fun, artsy smartsy bubble in the middle of rural NYS. I love it there!
