<p>5'9". average height for a guy is 5'10".</p>

122

<p>Um... no, it's rather 5'10". 5'9" would be about 175 cm, at least I think so, :D.
Yea, but honestly, I don't know many guys that would not mind dating a girl who is taller, it's just bad for your self-esteem, ^^. The thing though is that all models wear ridiculously high high-heels.</p>

123

<p>Oh, yeah, you're right. 5.837 feet or so (used an online calculator). look, i was a math major, not an arithmetic major =)</p>

<p>and heels or not, I sure wouldn't mind dating a model. must project quite a lot of self-confidence to go around with a girl who's your height or taller.</p>

124

<p>You'll be fine with that, right Denzera?</p>

125

<p>yeah, that's a tradeoff i'm willing to make.</p>

126

<p>Well I'm 5'5" so I'm screwed heels or no heels.</p>

127

<p>Haha!</p>

<p>How tall are you anyway Denzy-poo :P haha</p>

128

<p>Man I give you respect for that, I know I couldn't do it. Good thing is there are plenty of normal size hot girls, ^^</p>

129

<p>Mhmmhmmmmm</p>

130

<p>You think being 5'6 is a problem>? (for a guy)</p>

131

<p>Looks like truzazn and I are height brothers.</p>

132

<p>How da hell did we go from Columbia vs. NYU to Fashion && Modeling; you guys need to get your heads right && stop tweaking</p>

133

<p>So true... haha</p>

134

<p>^ excellent contribution vesal</p>

135

<p>NYU has the advantage as far residency. The lower east side/east village is a great place for college students unlike one - Columbia University - located seconds from spanish harlem. Other than that, No Comparison Columbia hands down - students are more intelligent (although, I sometimes am riddled by how unintelligent the neanderthals that go to Columbia are.
Like someone said earlier "Queer and artsy are great substitutes for intelligence at NYU" Which, Unfortunately is true.</p>

136

<p>for the last time Columbia is not in spanish Harlem.....Its in Morningside heights!</p>

137

<p>well, once you walk around, you'll realize that columbia is surrounded on all sides by Harlem. and that "morningside heights" is the Columbia Administration's euphemism for "please just don't call it Harlem".</p>

<p>that said, the parts of harlem south of 125th st and east of (roughly) lexington ave are pretty darn safe. i should know, i live there.</p>

<p>but Spanish Harlem is east of lexington over in the 100s and 110s. that's a very different neighborhood, El Barrio, but it's more than a mile away from columbia.</p>

138

<p>Adios muchacho!</p>

<p>there's just a stigma associated with the word "harlem". people imagine an urban wasteland with grafiti everywhere, daily driveby's, etc. etc...especially those who aren't from the tri-state area and have never been to the city</p>

<p>so it's perfectly understandable why they would put that spin on it</p>
