* '''Butler by Ttan''' -- [[User:Puppyfury|Puppyfury]] 21:28, 17 March 2007 (PDT)
* No particular prefernce. Ttan's could use a nice border I think. Keep using the pixelated wikicu as the image I see next to my bookmark though. [[User:Absentminded|Absentminded]] 18:43, 18 March 2007 (EDT)
* I like the Ttan logo. I think it's very appropriate. [[User:Stephen.wang|wang]] 21:55, 18 March 2007 (EDT)
* I also like the Ttan logo. [[User:Feinstein|Feinstein]] 01:28, 19 March 2007 (EDT)

* We can't use the crown logo. Columbia is SUPER protective over the crown and the lion. They will swoop down and kill people. [[User:Stephen.wang|wang]] 22:28, 18 March 2007 (EDT)
:* Good point. Crown logo withdrawn. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 22:32, 18 March 2007 (EDT)
* Ttan's logo is very harsh at the edges, so I applied some transparency. Maybe I faded the bottom edge too much. Any thoughts? I'm going to go ahead and use it as the logo for now. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 01:27, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
* Can we make Ttan's logo a little more symmetrical? The placement of the columns is a bit awkward. Or am I issing the point? [[User:Pacman|Pacman]] 06:40, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
:Possibly, but then the top wouldn't line up.. I'll mess around with it tonight. [[User:Ttan|Ttan]] 06:44, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
:It looks like the admin has beaten me to it.. I'm for keeping it as it is. [[User:Ttan|Ttan]] 12:06, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
:I think the logo looks way too bright now. Like way too much saturation tool. [[User:Stephen.wang|wang]] 20:43, 19 March 2007 (EDT)
::I've reduced the contrast a little. [[User:Admin|Admin]] 07:24, 20 March 2007 (EDT)

* I would go for the final option - reduced contrast. [[User:Alumwithtoomuchfreetime|Alumwithtoomuchfreetime]] 21:29, 21 March 2007 (EDT)

First Year Run

2007-03-14T20:29:46Z

Alumwithtoomuchfreetime:

A tradition of dubious credibility, '''First Year Run''' was initiated in 2000 by then-director of [[NSOP]] Dina Epstein (C '01), who has since gone on to become an admissions officer for Columbia. On the first night of NSOP students gather in Roone Arledge Auditorium in Lerner Hall for a presentation, after which they are ushered out the back onto Broadway, where they pass through a cordon of cheering NSOP coordinators, finally passing through the 116th Street gates, officially becoming Columbia students. In recent years, members of the [[CUMB]] has played at this event in exchange for early dorm move-in privileges.

This 'tradition' has the unfortunate distinction of being both recently invented and wholly unoriginal. Several schools have had similar traditions dating back much further in their histories, and which tend to carry a bit more weight. This is most notably the case at Princeton where the entering first year class marches through the Nassau Street gates of the campus and are warned never to exit through them again until Commencement lest they be cursed and fail to graduate. Students who take the legend seriously diligently exit through one of the two smaller gates next to the main Nassau gates. No similar legend has been attached to the Columbia 'tradition', probably because exiting and entering the gates is a routine necessity given how often other campus entrances are closed for security purposes at night.
