We might all think we’re special and unique, but the fact of the matter is that we Columbia students are all sort of similar. If you feel attacked by this post, or don’t, let us know why in the comments below. A typical Columbia student on any given day is wearing Stan Smiths (dirty) or […]

Everyone, you need to stop what you’re doing right now and look at this. Yes. That is right. Carman has been renovated. WE REPEAT. CARMAN HAS BEEN RENOVATED.
