Cornell documentary to air: WSKG is premiering a special documentary film this coming week. "Cornell -- Birth of the American University" will air Monday, Dec. 6, and Thursday, Dec. 9, at 8 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 11, at 5:30 p.m. The documentary pegs the beginning of classes at Cornell in 1868 as a new era that changed the way higher education was taught in the United States. The one-hour film focuses on Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White and how the dreams and ambitions of the two men came together. The documentary was produced by WSKG TV's Brian Frey, who also produced the Emmy Award-winning documentaries "The Flood of '35" and "Glenn Curtiss:The Forgotten Eagle." WSKG, a PBS station, broadcasts from the Binghamton area on Channel 46 and is carried on Channel 6 by Ithaca's Time Warner Cable.
