Cornell vs GULC

Yes, another Cornell vs. GULC. Though very early in the cycle, I feel as though I'll end up choosing between these two schools when it's all said and done (for scholarship reasons, geographic, etc.)
A lot of people seem to be much more pro-Cornell than pro-GULC on TLS. I get why--the employment figures (particularly for BigLaw) are much more impressive on Cornell's end.
I've asked on other threads, but I'll ask here again: are the employment figures that disparate to pick Cornell over GULC in the vast majority of cases? Or could/should factors like aiming for PI/gov't, wanting to live in DC over Ithaca, etc etc. sway one toward GULC?
***One other alternative is to apply ED to Michigan. I've considered this, but I kind of don't want to start over the summer since I already have travel plans and my current lease runs through July. It would just be an extra hassle/more expensive to try and make Summer Start at Michigan work. And I could certainly use some down time over the summer. But if anyone is willing to make a pitch for Michigan ED, I'd be happy to hear. ( I could apply RD but I think the only way I'd get in to Michigan is through ED)
