@ha Barnard faculty reducing courseload? BULLSHIT. Barnard students take like 4 classes a semester. Some do 3 and some do 2, which is utterly ridiculous.
@Anonymous firstly: the statement that barnard students only take 4 classes a semester is ridiculous and frankly, not at all true. Barnard students need the same number of credits to graduate as columbia students, and take the same number of courses and do the same amount of work… we just do it all a hell of a lot less arrogantly than you do, dear “ha.”
secondly: if you had actually READ the article (gasp!) you would know that it was referring to the fact that there will be fewer courses OFFERED at Barnard, not fewer classes taken…
…the whole putting down Barnard bullshit is really starting to get fucking old. Go grow a pair and feel confident enough in your own intellectual ability and academic pursuits to feel like you don’t need to spend your time disparaging Barnard students.
love, a “ridiculous” Barnard student.
@fellow BC I agree — thank you for putting ‘ha’ in its place — but it seemed to me that there will be just as many courses offered, only their sizes will increase.
@Anonymous Haha Anya Liftig is awesome.
