A&S student Olivia Corn, leader of the Cornell Republicans, is profiled in this Cornell Alumni Magazine story as she heads the organization at a monumental time in U.S. politics.

"I got to speak at a Gary Johnson event in New York City in front of 3,000 people, participate in a millennial panel on CBS, and talk to a lot of national media," she says in the story. "None of that would have happened if this election cycle hadn’t been so crazy and controversial. Yeah, it was difficult at times, and there were certain things that I wish hadn’t happened. But it opened up so many doors and showed me what the world of politics could be like."
