I did not go to Columbia, but I grew up (and live once again) just a few short blocks from that campus. It will always be special to me cause I spent so much time playing there with my friends when I was really little. It really is a strange oasis in the middle of the upper west side. And Matt, have you really never been up this far? For shame! It's great up here! Aw Columbia! I did not go to Columbia, but I grew up (and live once again) just a few short blocks from that campus.

I always think it's interesting to see such an oasis in the middle of the city. Very nice. Have you decided what your focus of study will be? Have a nice time in Miami, and say hi to Michael Breeden, Zoe Zien, and Ezra Hurwitz for me please! Beautiful shots of your campus.

You pretty much just highlighted some of my favorite and least favorite things about Columbia and Barnard: my favorites being the dance annex and dance courses, the views, and college walk; my least favorite being the depressing and claustrophobic Butler stacks. By the way, is your Bio lab on Barnard's campus? The view you have from your lab is almost the same view I had last year from my Barnard dorm room, way up on the 16th floor of the quad.

I've never been that far up, but I too find it hard to believe that exists in NYC! The picture of you in the stacks cracks me up. At NCSA we had stacks like that in our library basement except they had cranks on the end with which you could expand and close off the space between each stack, essentially allowing you to trap someone in there. Quite scary indeed. Always reminds me of the opening of the movie "Ghostbusters" with the NY Public Library. The campus looks gorgeous!

Kind of amazing it even exists in NYC since NYU and Hunter and the others are so urban in comparison. I'm so excited to hear about your "Dance Criticism" class! I didn't even know they had such classes -- I just figured critics figured it out on the job! I saw that Macaulay is to be interviewed by Mindy Aloff up there on the 24th. Re. Miami: there are some gorgeous examples of Art Deco aligning South Beach if you're into architecture. Versace's mansion is also there. And there are some nice clubs and restaurants, as well as fun tres chi chi designer clothing stores - mainly Versace for obvious reasons. Also there are some great Cuban restaurants on the main street in Little Havana -- I think it's called Calle Ocho. Have fun! And please keep us updated on that Dance Crit class :) Wow, Columbia is a really beautiful campus.
