The fair First Lady, of the arms and (presidential) man, was seen in our very own community, dining at our very own Community. Along with daughters, Sasha and Malia, Michelle Obama enjoyed a nice lunch in the upper area of the restaurant. Columbia students remained dignified, composed in the presence of American royalty. These photos likely came from some obnoxious Cornell kids who happened to be visiting. For more updates on the visit, check out our Twitter.
Here’s a video of Michelle leaving:
Now that Mrs. Obama seems to be brunching in New York, this leads us to wonder if rumors of the Obama Library coming to New York are 100% true. News broke the other day that the First Lady would be allowed to pick the location, and she mentioned she liked the Harlem area in New York. Here’s to more brunches with Michelle Obama in the neighborhood soon.
Update 2:26 pm:
The First Lady ventured even closer into our community as she was spotted inside of and walking around the Diana Center. Finger-pointing Barnard students and faculty alike say she exited through the Milbank-Broadway gate into another black SUV.

@Anonymous Malia come to Barnard!!!
@Anonymous Where was I for this!!
@Anonymous “of the arms and (presidential) man”
this was good, thanks bwog.
@Show some respect She is not ‘Michelle’. She is the First Lady/Mrs. Obama/Michelle Obama, and you sound like a ditzy tabloid assuming a first name basis with her.
@seriously chill….
@Anonymous No chill
@mac did they just get into separate suvs? lol
@or... or taking Malia to look at colleges….
@ugh just let the first family have some peace for once instead of bothering them for facebook likes
@lol journalistic integrity Bwog is Emma’s bitch.
@Go away, Emma's awesome! Can YOU do this?
Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
“Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
With silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
No, no you cannot.
You may say this is irrelevant. So was yours. You started it.
@Anonymous Malia is black, the President’s daughter, and a fucking legacy. She is an admission officer’s wet dream
@hmmm She’s also a legacy at Princeton and Harvard. I’m not so sure that she’ll end up wanting to go to Columbia in any case, especially given that her father’s library seems at this moment like it might end up here, and he may come with it, bringing Valerie Jarrett as well.
@Anonymous Legacy for undergraduate admissions only counts if someone’s parents went to the undergraduate division of that university. So, Malia does not have legacy preference at Harvard College. Not that it matters much though, as she is the daughter of the fucking President.
