Who wouldn’t want to live in the middle of Frat Row?

Want to live in a cute brownstone with your best friend and live our your “I’m a real New Yorker dreams”?

Columbia students take you across the globe with interactive fiction.

Symposium, nicknamed that because of the Greek restaurant right by this dorm, is great for juniors and seniors who want a quiet brownstone and an apartment-style living space while near the action.

Today, there will be a symposium to honor Donald Keene, CC ’42, MA ’47, PhD ’49, University Professor emeritus, and one of the most celebrated scholars of Japanese culture in the world.
