Barnard is sort of the same as Columbia.

Princeton is more for nerds who never kissed a girl.

There are many many LACs that people don't know about.

Just say it's an all women LAC in NYC.





You remind me of one of my kids when they were like 4yrs old - they would think a few steps ahead and predict a conversation in advance and then want to tell others what they were "supposed to have said".

Are you really THAT concerned with exactly what an 18yr old freshman is using to identify her college?


This. I am sure she will respond that her kid is at elite UVA or Northeastern.


Crazy hater brings in UVA and Northeastern to every thread.
Mod, please ban this lunatic.



You are so easily triggered. There is more than one of us on the board lady.


You are definitely so crazy.

That's a good way to put it!

Your implied point is such a logical fallacy, there’s actually a name for it. Appeal to purity.

Agree, OP is hot and bothered because they feel that neighbor did better.


No, I was asking if it’s the same school and why someone would say they are attending Columbia if they attend Barnard. I figured there must be a reason.



OP



Maybe they are proud to be part of an all-women's college?


No, seriously.

Just letting some confused people know about common sense.
You sound so concerned.
Barnard is not special at all in that sense, like Wellesley and any other women's LAC.
Adding Columbia to Barnard sounds more confusing and requires more explanation.

Barnard at one point was asked to become part of their ivy affiliates. So did Radcliffe. So did Vassar. Radcliffe became Harvard after they offered all their female students to the male-only Harvard. Barnard and Vassar said screw ivies and remained independent.


Yes. Barnard should be proud of being independent, and not to be lumped together with Columbia.


Same with Vassar. It's still its own. Radcliffe on the other hand sold it's soul - trafficked every one of their daughters down the river - to become Harvard.

So what's the purpose of subdividing New York colleges. Is New York becoming a new state?
