[quote=Anonymous]The Columbia College diplomas have been written in Latin at least since 1758, with the first full four-year graduating class; if not earlier following 1754. The internal divisions within the university are clear. The philosophy at the university is to : think critically, share ideas,  work hard and each day be kind.

The College students certainly are not bothered in the slightest about GS students on campus or in their classroom ( not often noticeable except for the good insights they provide), so why on earth should you be bothered ?  Clearly over 60,000   17-year-olds  this year, and over 40,000 last year,  are running with their applications to the College and SEAS, along with their parents, and do not see the GS education arrangement as any impediment.

The few GS students I met were fantastic individuals: veterans, interesting job experience ex-career people, journalists, and an artist or two who wanted to return to education. No College student ever felt 'flooded' and often did not notice or care. We were thrilled and too busy at the College to think anything other than about our college lives. [/quote]
