Otherwise, double click the downloaded file. You will probably want to open it as a new calendar, separate from any others you may have.

You now have a local copy of the Cornell Academic Calendar as one of your calendars in iCal.

I have published my local copy so I can simply subscribe to it from my iPhone and other Macs I use.

I would include the subscribe link here for your convenience were it not for the requirement of an authorization for download.

I am looking into whether Cornell has any plans to publish the calendar so one can simply subscribe to it.
