@Columbia2004 To the person who took this photograph and the editors of Bwog: check out the bust of Lawrence Wien in the entrance to the main reading room at Butler Library. It reads “Doctorate Honoris CASUA” rather than “Doctorate Honoris CAUSA”.
@even more serious That’s not what I’ve seen in class. Many Seas students tend to be highlyconceited as if they were better than all the cc kids, all smug because they think it’s written in stone that they’ll have better jobs than us after graduation. In the end they don’t have much to back up that pretense. Also they tend to be condescending towards other non-Seas disciplines like for example:
Me: I’m taking Science of Psych
Seas kid: -Scoffs- please, that’s not even remotely a science.
@Like most students, I believe, they are of the opinion that the subjects that they study have more value than the rest. That isn’t a distinguishing attribute. But in my experience they tend to be among the least conceited.
@You realize that you’re only confirming the validity of my generalization, right? You might also take into consideration the fact that this discussion was initiated by a comment from student in CC. Anyway, I think we can all agree that CU wouldn’t be complete without either one.
@Before someone comments on the typos in my remark, of which I’m aware, let me just say– to preempt any mistaken prejudgment– that I’m not from SEAS. I’m from CC, and I just find this to be the silliest rivalry.
@Rugglerat People in CC feel superior to those in SEAS. Those in SEAS feel superior to those in CC. And everyone in CC and SEAS can agree that they are superior to Barnard students.
@welll I can say as a former seas student, two years out of college I am making 100k + a year and I have never been able to spell worth anything. For all of you spelling and grammar jerks that post on her non stop, truth is in the real world, the pace of business is so fast, no one could care about those things.

@Anonymous While everyone is busy arguing over how big their academic penis is, I’d would like to say that I love the Zoolander reference! :D
@Anonymous And how!

@Anonymous On a serious note, it must have been a SEAS student who wrote it.
@Anonymous on a serious note, most SEAS students could kick your ass at uni writing.

@Anonymous well, me, a science major in CC, would scoff at SEAS kids….
@Anonymous nice grammar, cc science major

@Anonymous it should be extenSion
