In the spirit of keeping Facebook reportage to a minimum, we’re not going to tell you about the changes that went down today on the site. We are, however, going to complain vocally about this little flub. Bitch here.
@Actually... You can create a subnetwork for Barnard- it’ll be within the columbia network but will list barnard college as the “networks” name on profiles with @barnard.edu addresses.
Claremont McKenna has the same thing with FIVE schools together under “one” network.
It’s doable. clearly Barnard students haven’t agitated enough about facebook’s ruthless suppression of their identity.
@Poo And to think…you busted your ass to get into CC and not only is my GPA higher than yours, but I got to take two years off to backpack across Asia before enrolling.
My favorite “insult” that CC/SEAS kids get is “you’re rich”. Oh no, you’re better off than me, SLAM!
I see the same thing in Barnard and GS: The bright ones are proud of their standing and claim it, the dim ones cling to names and call CC/SEAS kids pretentious pricks.
If by reading that you got really upset, then you know where you sit.
@true you’re right. gs students couldn’t care less how you insecure cc/seas kids feel about barnard. unlike you rich prestige whores, we’re all just happy to be here.
@jimmy donuts Haha…Matt Sanchez, oh its funny because its true.
Seriously, Niko will run away with this thing, mark my words. Have you seen the man debate? Sentences like a fucking French rapier, thurst bleed slash boy! Fer shizz…
@just got this email just got this email from facebook:
“Hi,
We are aware of the problem that you described. We hope to resolve this glitch as soon as
possible. Sorry for any inconvenience. Let me know if you have any further questions.
@silly goose it makes no sense creating a seperate barnard network, as barnard girls have COLUMBIA email addresses and will continue to be on the columbia network while joining a second barnard network.

@probably not freshmen…you egotistical upperclassman
@An end to the debate Anyone have this GS hag in their class? She’s still lurking around campus http://www.ericajackson.com/
@Fuckin crazy What a schizoid whack-job! This is why GS should be disbanded. Keep the adult diaper stink off campus!

@#7er Actually, I’m SEAS.
My favorite “insult” that CC/SEAS kids get is “you’re rich”. Oh no, you’re better off than me, SLAM!

@events since clubs/events involve multiple undergraduate schools, they need to all be in the same network
@member jump i love how the size of the network has grown by 40 people in the past 6 hours
@probably freshmen
@hmm now it just says columbia. why oh why doesnt it say Columbia University in the City of New York???
@barnard girl I know it’s somewhat pointless to have a separate Barnard Network, but I’d like it.
@true you’re right. gs students couldn’t care less how you insecure cc/seas kids feel about barnard. unlike you rich prestige whores, we’re all just happy to be here.
@fixed they fixed it…it says Columbia now.
@elitist How are CC/SEAS guys going to properly stalk Barnard chicks if we aren’t in the same network? Guys, think about it.
@hmmm meh, I vote inconsequential. hardly worth a bwog post.
full disclosure: i’m in seas
@actually all barnard girls have both columbia and barnard email addresses. they can pick which to use.
@jimmy donuts Haha…Matt Sanchez, oh its funny because its true.

@McFister A warm welcome from the college that brought you Matt Sanchez.

@Blue, no green! Some Barnardians have @columbia.edu and some have @barnard.edu
Is there a difference, or does one forward to the other? Who decides which ladies get to use which?
And for the record, GS vs CC/SEAS is boring and usually depressing to argue, Barnard vs CC/SEAS/GS is tons of fun though!
@Get real GS has no place in the Barnard debate.
@tee hee You are clearly GS.
@chillout tent sweet. another bwog post encouraging gs vs. cc/seas bitchery. this time, it’s about a bug on a redesigned website. well done!
and i’m expecting niko to run away with this thing.
@jimmy donuts Honestly, you guys are such wusses when it comes to this.
Vote Niko Cunningham!
@while we're at it can people complain so that barnard is separate from columbia? thanks!
