Interesting, if (very) obscure, tidbit. At the same time Ed Muskie was a first-year law student at Cornell, Bill Rogers, Muskie's future predecessor as U.S. Secretary of State, was in his third and final year at Cornell Law. [Link] So, at a fairly small, then regional and very isolated law school in rural upstate New York, are two future Secretaries of State for the 1936-37 academic year. And I'd hazard a guess that neither knew (or perhaps even knew of) the other, though apparently Sol Linowitz was a mutual friend during that time (at least per Paul Sarbanes). [Link]
