[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When Columbia was still all male, Columbia sought a merger with Barnard, bit Barnyard declined due to Columbia's poor financial condition! Today, Barnard and students to state "Barnard College, Columbia University" or "Barnard College of Columbia University" on résumés. [/quote] Bet wrong, it seems. [/quote] Actually, it was more complicated. Barnard and Columbia couldn't work out the money, but they also couldn't work out a way for Barnard to keep its identity - anyone remember Radcliffe or Pembroke? Not a future Barnard wanted. Having gone there (CC '88) I can tell you that the culture was very different on the other side of Broadway. I personally enjoyed having access to the SLAC environment for language classes and certain intro classes and being able to take classes with faculty tenured to the University (grad school, research profs) for some of my other classes.[/quote]
