<p>What gives you the right to condescend to me? </p>
<p>Your concern was - which non-HYP would be best for me. Your conclusion is that Columbia is not the school for you. I think that conclusion is hasty (it indicates in a sense that you might not be a real student seeking advice, perhaps), and I hope that if you are a student you reconsider.</p>
<p>Columbia isn’t a school that is given justice online, especially on CC. It is something very different when you walk through the gates at 116th street, and hang out on campus. It is a pretty powerful experience. It is special.</p>
<p>Good luck on your college search. I really can’t wait to hear about your trip to visit Columbia.</p>
