<p>I offer this for you guys since it is specifically written by a Columbia student. However, it's really pretty good advice for anyone trying to decide where to attend. I do hope the link works...I just copied and pasted. FYI, this is in today's Columbia Spectator (online, obviously).</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>

<p>lol.....great job :) I was just going to start a similar thread!</p>
<p>Wow! What a talented writer, not to mention a mature first year. Thanks for that link.</p>
<p>I feel like I've read the same type of article 50 times, and that she's reinventing the wheel.</p>

<p>The Spec copy writers should take a little of that blame. lol.</p>
<p>oh come on C02, you expect people to actually write "which professors with whom to take a class"? This isn't 10th-grade english class, it's ok to occasionally write the way people actually talk.</p>
