This week on Dark Academia, Professor Nicki takes us on a tour of the infamous Cornell University.  Get ready to hear about the fanciest ghosts in Upstate New York, and possibly the most nosy.  Also, find out how to join some of the most mysterious secret societies.

Do you have a campus you would like us to cover? Any stories scarier than a frat bro asking "who do you know here?" Did you know what a quadrangle was before? Send us an email at darkacademiathepodcast@gmail.com
