"$800 is the average
cost per student for all local and long distance transportation
plus housing for the eight (8) days Cornell students spent living
in South Beach during April 2003. March 2004 is likely to be
more expensive. We are arriving at the peak of Spring Break
for 90% of
America's universities. Our probable off campus dates are March
15-23.
The cost of meals, entertainment, gifts, etc. is not covered.
No average cost for meals in 2003 is available, but estimates
range from $12-$52 per day, depending on how often people
ate and played in the well-known restaurants and clubs of
Miami's South Beach. |

Le'Ora Tyree, and Ben Barnes at a well-known restaurant in
South Beach's famous Lincoln Road Mall.
Holding the cost of meals to under $15 a day is not difficult.
A small grocery store, open 6 AM to 9 PM, is across Washington
Avenue from the Clay Hotel, where we'll be staying. The Clay
also has a large kitchen/courtyard dining area available for
residents to use, if they wish to stock groceries and prepare
many of their own meals.
