Beebe Lake was first created by a dam built by Ezra Cornell. In 1904 the university built a 1.5-megawatt hydroplant 145 feet below the lake. "It's the original carbon-free energy source!" says Bert Bland, associate VP for energy & sustainability. Cornell just received a 40-megawatt hydroplant license renewal from the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission.

“Children often upend careers. And careers often upend the ability of women to have children. The timing is brutal. For women who want to have a family, waiting to their mid-thirties to have their first child is stacking the deck against succeeding at the family part.”
