yes there was a very active folk music society and would meet for jams in Willard straight hall. much more. Write me at jesjmskali@aol.com
the Unmuzzled ox had lot of local musicians play. one of best performances was Steve Newhouse's farewell after leaving Cornell . later he came back and formed the Mojos.
The Ox was great and famous for its ox burgers. lot of great musicians payed...for several years in the 60s Cornell had a folk festival.
Cornellans like the North Quarry St. irregulars raised funds for Cornell projects in civil rights including a voter registration project.
