Barnard is Barnard, not Columbia!!!

[Anonymous]

I remember Radcliffe was considered Harvard, just for women. Not sure why the hairsplitting.

Long story short, it is like Oxford has 30 colleges, Columbia can have many colleges. The most prestigious is certainly Columbia College but there are others. Incidentally, Barnard's acceptance rate is well into the single digits--closing in on 8 percent--lower than Cornell and pretty close to UPenn. The degree says Columbia University, Barnard College. There are some compelling arguments that it is part of Columbia University and hence having some affiliation with the Ivy League.

Barnard is far less selective than Columbia. I’ve occasionally encountered women who say their undergraduate degree is from Columbia University and it’s a clear signal that they graduated from Barnard but don’t want to own it.

Right 8 percent is super less selective than 3.8 percent. I am sure UVA is more selective at 20 percent. Anyways, it is an undergraduate degree from Columbia University, just not Columbia College. It is an official undergraduate school of Columbia and gate says outside Barnard College of Columbia University. They have been instructed to put Barnard College, Columbia University on their resume and LinkedIn. No dog in this fight. My kids went to Cornell and Brown and I went University of Texas undergrad, Georgetown Law. My wife went to UPenn. Just have hired a couple of Barnard undergrads at my AM Law 250 law firm (who incidentally went to "real" ivies for law school).

8 percent is less selective than 3.8 percent. Just like Barnard was less selective a few years ago letting in 20 percent of applicants when Columbia College was accepting 10 percent. I do not object to people writing that they attend Barnard College of Columbia university. I can point you to public profiles where Barnard Grads write that they did their undergraduate degree at Columbia University, with zero mention of Barnard College

DD went to Columbia. She said that freshman year everybody cared that some Barnard women associated themselves with Columbia. After the first year, the Columbia kids realized they were just being d*bags and nobody cared anymore. At graduation, we attended two ceremonies: one for Columbia only and one for the university as a whole, including Barnard, general studies (for nontraditional students) and the grad schools.

Fair--agree with you there. Should be Barnard College, Columbia University or Barnard College of Columbia University (as the front gate of Barnard says).

Barnard students receive a diploma with the names of both Barnard and Columbia on it and signed by the presidents of both Barnard College and Columbia University. It doesn’t get much more official than that.

Yes. Barnard is part of Columbia University. No one disputes that. I think people just get annoyed when Barnard students list their BA/BS degree as being from Columbia university, without any mention of which college of Columbia University. Columbia College grads write that their degree is from Columbia College of Columbia University.

No one disputes that? Did you not read the header to this thread? Or any of the idiotic posts which claimed it was totally separate

You’re welcome to get annoyed at whatever you want. I don’t know what good it does, but have at it. But the fact is that a vast number of people list the university they graduated from without listing the undergraduate college.

I bet you the Barnard grads put " Columbia" on their resume. 🙂

And why not? It’s their choice.

Barnard students can obtain a second major or a minor from Columbia. So, if a Barnard grad has a major from Columbia or a minor and lots of coursework at Columbia, the line between the two has already become very blurred.

Yeah sure, nothing wrong with resume inflation, or heck resume falsification. If you're going to pay $57k a year for a private college like Barnard, shouldn't you be proud to put its name on your resume?

Only people who are ashamed of where they graduate from.

I've seen people do similar. Go to a two week or weekend thing for a summer and then they start wearing Harvard merch and telling people they went to Harvard. Unbelievably cringe. Harvard invites this with all of their scam programs.

+1 I've seen this on LinkedIn. I've noticed colleagues adding a degree from Harvard University and it's a 2 week summer course. But like the PP said, Harvard welcomes it and loves the cash cows who buy these useless certificate programs.

Harvard is already rich and prestigious, why is it acting like that?
