BUZZ AROUND CAMPUS: In its $ rst four home games this season, Cornell has averaged 10,279 people with a high of 13,035 to see the Big Red top Colgate on Homecoming weekend. That is more than twice as many as last year’s average of 5,008 fans per game. Cornell’s four-game total of 41,117 fans is already more than last year’s six-game total of 30,045. A large part of that credit goes to a student Cornell Marketing Group led by Cornell athletics employee Elle Nichols and Je! Hall, as well as the Cornell Football Association.
