Columbia-Barnard relationship

2009-10-08T23:58:21Z

Qrai: /* Diplomas */

[[Columbia University]] and [[Barnard College]] are two independent institutions with a long shared history and a close, somewhat unique, [[:Category:School relationships|relationship]]. Complications in this relationship often lead to misconceptions and endless bickering among students. The relationship between the institutions has been governed since [[1900]] by an [[Columbia-Barnard Intercorporate Agreement|intercorporate agreement]] that is periodically renegotiated or renewed. [[Columbia College]] began admitting female students in [[1983]], creating a potential redundancy between the schools.

==Summary==
Barnard students have the ability to [[Course registration|register]] for almost any class at Columbia. However, their degrees are NOT awarded by the Columbia University. Columbia has no administrative relationship with Barnard students, and elsewhere flatly states that "undergraduate education at Columbia is offered through [[Columbia College]], the [[Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science]], and the [[School of General Studies]]."[http://www.columbia.edu/academic_programs/index.html] Nor does the University count Barnard in any statistical calculation of enrollment, admission, or expenditure. All of these functions fall to Barnard College.
Barnard degrees holders can NOT even join Columbia University Alumni Association.

Simply put, Barnard is institutionally independent, while academically and socially linked to Columbia. Institutionally, Barnard has its own board of trustees (chaired by [[Anna Quindlen]]) which oversees the school's operation, its own endowment, its own faculty, its own campus (Columbia does not share ownership of any of Barnard's campus buildings), and its own administration. However, the sign above the entrance gate to Barnard reads "Barnard College of Columbia University". There are few [[:Category:Freebies|freebies]] between the school- Barnard has to pay Columbia for access to utilities, the libraries, and other facilities. Columbia University does not handle admissions for Barnard, nor does it spend money on or collect money from Barnard students. The same goes for Barnard College and Columbia students. Nevertheless, both student bodies typically benefit in some manner when either school spends money, as the schools tend to keep student programming open to all undergraduates, though this is not always the case.

That said, both schools are academically linked by the [[Columbia-Barnard Intercorporate Agreement|intercorporate agreement]] which allows for nearly seamless, open cross-registration between the schools. As part of the agreement to open cross-registration (instigated by Columbia budgeteers in [[1973]] as a means of opening a new revenue stream by charging Barnard for each credit taken by its students at Columbia), Columbia took partial control of Barnard's [[tenuring]] process. They subsequently took partial control of Barnard's hiring process.

The relationship between Columbia departments and their Barnard counterparts runs the gamut. At one extreme are the mathematics and philosophy departments, which are completely integrated. At the other extreme are the chemistry and political science departments, which operate independently. Most departments are somewhere in the middle. The schools generally hire faculty and develop departments with an eye towards eliminating redundancies and maximizing the benefits from limited resources.

Barnard is, for all intents and purposes, part of the same college life as the Columbia schools, despite not being under the Columbia yoke. Though there are practical consequences of Barnard's independent status, in day-to-day affairs the lines between the schools are, in fact, mostly non-existent. This is ultimately a very ambiguous relationship when attempting to determine who is and is not a "Columbia student". The situation has prompted endless rumination from all quarters, both informed and uninformed on the Columbia side, where students admitted to Columbia take issue with Barnard students referring to themselves as "Columbia students". Many regard this endless argument as petty and unimportant.

==Practical Consequences==
As mentioned before, in day-to-day life the lines between the schools are blurred to the point that it all appears like one big student body.

===Registration===
The schools have nearly complete cross-registration, Registration for Columbia students is almost seamless, with Barnard departments courses listed on the [[Columbia Course Directory]], and registrable through the same process as Columbia courses on [[SSOL]].

===Housing===
Barnard and Columbia have their own housing stock and housing systems. Barnard and Columbia College/[[SEAS]] undergrads have historically not had swipe access to each others [[:Category:Residence halls|residence halls]]. Students on both sides of the street have varying opinions on this policy. Some Barnard students believe they should have access to Columbia undergraduate dorms, but CC/SEAS undergraduates should not have access to the Barnard dorms because only girls (or mostly girls) live in these dorms and thus Barnard dorms have extra security risks. Other students from both CC/SEAS and Barnard believe that neither of the two undergraduate populations should have access to the other's dorms. The two student populations belong to separate schools, these students argue, and thus each should only have access to their own dorms and the resources therein. Finally there are students, both from Barnard and CC/SEAS, who believe that all the undergraduates within Columbia University should have access to each others' dorms. Students of this view generally argue that the two student populations are not really separate and that it is inconvenient for both Barnard and CC/SEAS students to not be able to swipe into each others dorms.

The most recent attempt to enact swipe access between schools was scuttled by [[CCSC]] in 2001. Additionally, the excuse that Barnard and Columbia have separate security offices and separate swipe access systems, integrating would be too difficult and costly. Recently there was an [[SGA]] campaign for a compromised "Flash Access," in which Barnard/CC/SEAS undergraduates would be able to sign a special security contract and then would be able to themselves sign into the other schools dorm.

Students from each school have the option live in the other's dorms, in which case they are granted swipe access (Barnard students are granted access to all Columbia residence halls, while Columbia students are granted access only to their own building). Columbia students can opt to live in Barnard housing (usually [[Plimpton]]), and some students opt to [[Summer Transfer]] into Plimpton to get out of a bad Columbia housing choices if they have a really bad lottery number. Similarly, Barnard students can live with their Columbia friends in group housing (they cannot register by themselves for the Columbia lottery, but must register as a group with Columbia students). However, the number of Barnard students allowed to live in Columbia housing is limited, and cannot exceed the number of Columbia students who opt to live in Barnard housing.

==Other Aspects==

===Athletics and the Ivy League===
As part of an NCAA approved consortium, Barnard does not maintain an athletics program of its own, but instead women athletes from Barnard compete on University-wide (i.e. "Columbia") athletic teams. There are 3 such consortiums in the nation (such as the one between the 5 colleges of Claremont Mckenna), and Columbia-Barnard's is the only one in Division I. Barnard athletes figure prominently on a number of teams, including Archery.

Whether or not Barnard is an '[[Ivy League]]' school hinges on the interpretation of this arrangement. The Ivy League is an NCAA Division I athletics conference with 8 member schools. Though Barnard itself is not affiliated with the league, as it has no athletics program, its athletes are represented in the league, though only through its connection to Columbia.

=== Diplomas ===
In one of the more unusual points of the agreement between the school, Barnard College diplomas are conferred at the University commencement in May. However, Barnard degres are not officially awarded by Columbia University. Their diplomas differ from the Columbia College diploma in that they are signed by both the University President and the Barnard College President, and carry the official seals of both institutions. Barnard graduates have their own alumni association and cannot join the CAA because Barnard degrees are not Columbia University degree. However,most regional alumni clubs (including the Columbia Alumni Arts League) welcome Barnard grads.

===Single-sex admissions===
Barnard's single-sex admissions policy is an issue of some controversy in some circles on Columbia's campus. Some consider it to be outmoded and even sexist. The Barnard administration, as well as the majority of the Barnard student population, believe that its single-sex policy is necessary to the educational mission and general college environment. Generally they point to both the continual existence of sexism within society as well as data that suggests that at least some women work better and are more likely to succeed when they are educated at single-sex colleges. Barnard has a unique relationship with its parent Ivy compared to the other [[Seven Sisters]] colleges. For example, before [[Harvard University|Harvard]] went co-ed, Radcliffe College was a separate college affiliated with Harvard. Soon after Harvard began accepting women, Radcliffe was subsumed into Harvard College. Barnard has long been concerned about losing its individual identity as a college, as Radcliffe did, and as it most certainly would if it integrated with Columbia.

==Endless Debates==
Some of the things people will endlessly argue over are as follows.

===E-Mail Addresses===
Barnard students are given email address at both barnard.edu and columbia.edu. There are some who believe this is unfair because Barnard students are only affiliates of the school. However, most would point out this is policy is for academic simplicity. This way, teachers can just email all their students at their Columbia email addresses using [[Courseworks]], instead of having to figure out which students have Columbia email addresses and which have Barnard email addresses. Of course, a simple workaround would be to grant Barnard students @barnard.columbia.edu aliases that forwarded to their barnard email accounts. In fact, all students with a @barnard.edu account can also send their e-mail to @barnard.columbia.edu and the email forwards to the eBear account.

The issue here is with the specter of the "Barnard student masquerading as Columbia student and applying for jobs." The prevelance of this practice can't be confirmed, but there is plenty of anecdotal evidence of Barnard alumnae worried about the 'lack of recognition' of the Barnard name using various configurations of Barnard and Columbia on their resumes ("Barnard College, Columbia University", "Barnard College of Columbia University", etc.) if not outright abandoning one for the other.

==== Facebook ====
A related issue is Barnard's presence on [[Facebook]]. Specifically, that it doesn't have one. Rather than create overlapping 'networks' like they did for the Claremont Colleges, the Facebook programmers decided to create only one network. Since facebook networks are largely based on e-mail domains (the @columbia.edu part of your address), there's really nothing to do. Students are ambivalent about this issue, as there are a number who lament the lack of distinction between Columbia and Barnard students (including Barnard students who want a stronger Barnard identity), though most admit that it would be unfortunate for students at both schools not to be able to stalk each other.

===Selectivity===
Some Columbia students argue that Barnard students identifying themselves as "Columbia students" cheapen Columbia students' prestige, as they believe Barnard students since admission to Columbia is considerably more selective than to Barnard. They point to figures such as Barnard's significantly lower high school GPA, class rank, SAT scores and higher [[Admissions|acceptance rate]]. Barnard students often argue that they perform just as well as Columbia students in Columbia courses, though there has yet to be any concrete evidence of this.

==History==

On October 23, [[1890]], the ''[[Spec]]'' welcomed Barnard with this editorial:

"With this issue Barnard College makes her bow--we beg the young ladies' pardon, her courtesy [curtsy]--to our readers. It is, for the present at least, our intention to make the news of our sister school a regular--and of course a pretty--department of our paper.

In if the course of time, however, we find that our sister students, prepossessing and spirituelle though they be, are not interesting and alert, we shall indeed feel obliged to sacrifice their publicity to more pressing news!

We shall, therefore, anxiously await from our correspondent the account of something 'real naughty and shocking' to keep alive interest. We should not like to suggest a love affair with a tutor; but if such an event came to pass spontaneously in the course of time, nothing could be further from our profession of impartiality than to restrain the news of it."
