A Cornell Love Story

Ah, the magic of the Big Red.

Ms. Matsis and Mr. McCready met on the first day of college classes in the fall of 2000. Later that year, he took her to a formal fraternity dance.

“I thought it was a date,” he said.

She didn’t.

“I thought we were just friends,” Ms. Matsis explained.

They didn't "date" after that, but met up again over 7 years later.

They lost touch for several years, but in March 2008 reconnected at a Cornell alumni charity event in Manhattan, with Mr. McCready joining Ms. Matsis on the same dodge-ball team. “She was still the beautiful girl, and we were still friends, but this time it was different,” Mr. McCready said. Ms. Matsis was feeling much the same.

How adorable. And what a great plug for that nyc.cornell.edu site the university has been pushing.
