[[Category:Class of 2011|Udell]]</div>PBOrfunhttps://www.wikicu.com/index.php?title=Open_Housing&diff=43537Open Housing2013-04-26T15:50:49Z<p>PBOrfun: </p>
<hr />
<div>'''Open Housing''' (formerly '''Gender Neutral Housing''') is the term for the series of policies put forward by the [[Columbia College Student Council]] and [[Engineering Student Council]] beginning in the 2009-10 academic year. The policies focus on changing the rules governing how [[Housing Services]] deals with gender and gender identity in the residence halls.<br />
<br />
In 2010, under the direction of then-VP Policy [[Sarah Weiss]], policy proposal was approved by administrators in Housing, Residential Life, and Community Development for the upcoming year which would allow students to opt into the system. The new rules would be:<br />
<br />
*A student could opt to live with someone who is listed in the system as having a different gender<br />
*Housing would allow students to claim exclusion from the gender binary, such as identifying as transsexual<br />
*A student who is being assigned a random roommate would not be assigned one of a differing gender, unless specifically requesting that option<br />
<br />
After working closely with administrators to develop the details of the policy, [[Sarah Weiss]], [[Avi Edelman]], and [[Miranda Elliot]] wrote a proposal for [[CCSC] and [[ESC]]. [[Sean Udell]] later insisted on having his name be added to the proposal even though he played a minor role in writing it, because he is a giant attention-seeking tool. The policy was passed unanimously by [[ESC]] and nearly-unanimously by [[CCSC]] (Senators [[Monica Quaintance]] and [[Alex Frouman]] voted against the proposal, because they were also massive tools).<br />
<br />
Despite administrative approval, the trial run was ultimately not implemented due to the scheduling of Deans [[Michele Moody-Adams]] and [[Feniosky Pena-Mora]], who had to also approve the program, but did not have time to formally review it before [[Room Selection]]. A task force was enacted to pursue the issue further.<br />
<br />
==Approval and Implementation==<br />
In November 2010, [[Kevin Shollenberger|Dean Kevin Shollenberger]] announced that [[Michele Moody-Adams|Dean Moody-Adams]] and [[Feniosky Pena-Mora|Dean Peña-Mora]] had approved a trial program for 2011-2012<ref>[http://bwog.com/2010/11/10/breaking-deans-approve-open-housing/ Breaking: Deans Approve Open Housing, Pilot Program Coming in the Fall]</ref>. The program would be available only to upperclass students and only in [[Wien]], [[600 W 113th St]], [[Ruggles]], [[East Campus]], [[47 Claremont]], and [[Woodbridge]].<br />

<hr />
<div>'''Kevin Shollenberger''' was the [[Dean of Student Affairs]] for [[Columbia College]] and [[SEAS]] and Associate Vice President for Undergraduate Student Life. He worked in an associate role in the [[Division of Student Affairs]] for nine years before being appointed dean. He's commonly known as Ke$ho, a nickname coined in [[Another_Scandal!_(117th_Annual_Varsity_Show)|V117]].<br />
<br />
Shollenberger was appointed Dean in the fall of [[2008]], with the expectation that his tenure would last about two years, after which point he'd be succeeded by a dean selected by the new deans of Columbia College ([[Moody-Adams]]) and SEAS ([[Peña-Mora]]), who had not yet been selected at the time.<ref>http://www.college.columbia.edu/news/kevin-shollenberger-appointed-dean-student-affairs</ref>. Shollenberger was fairly unpopular and held the position until May 31, 2013 when he stepped down to take a position as Vice Provost for Student Affairs at Johns Hopkins University<ref>http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2013/04/16/shollenberger-step-down-student-affairs-dean</ref>.<br />
<br />
<br />
== Controversies ==<br />
<br />
=== Dean's Selection Committee ===<br />
<br />
After the resignation of [[Michelle Moody-Adams]] as Dean of Columbia College, a search committee was formed to make a recommendation for a permanent dean. President Bollinger appointed two students for the search committee, J.T. Ramseur CC '13 and Mary Kircher CC '13. <br />
<br />
The Spectator subsequently published an op/ed by CCSC president [[Aki Terasaki]] CC ’12, former [[Student Governing Board]] chair [[Barry Weinberg]] CC ’12 and University Senators [[Alex Frouman]] CC ’12, and [[Kenny Durell]] CC ’12 that criticized the lack of elected student leaders on the committee. The students wrote “At no point were members of the Columbia College Student Council given notice that a search committee was being formed, much less asked which students should sit on that committee—two actions that, had they been taken, would have encouraged open communication and collaboration between students and administrators rather than confrontation." <ref> http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2012/04/04/add-elected-student-representatives-search-dean </ref><br />
<br />
As a result, Shollenberger appointed CCSC president-elect [[Karishma Habbu]] CC '12 to the search committee in addition to Ramseur and Kircher <ref>http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2012/04/06/habbu-appointed-columbia-college-dean-search-committee</ref>.<br />
<br />
===2012 Scolding of CUMB===<br />
<br />
Before the Orgo Night of Fall 2012, Shollenberger [[Orgo_Night#2012_Scolding|scolded]] via a student-body-wide email about a flier they made.<br />
<br />
No such rebuke was given to [[Kingsmen]] for their "rape me" flyers, or the flyers the following year which alluded to child abuse allegations against priests <ref> http://bwog.com/2011/10/20/protesting-the-kingsmens-uncourtly-display/ </ref>.<br />
<br />
===2010 Operation Ivy League===<br />
<br />
In December 2010, Shollenberger placed [[Alpha Epsilon Pi]], [[Pi Kappa Alpha]], and [[Psi Upsilon]] on interim suspension. In an email to students, he wrote "The suspension of these organizations is the result of the NYPD’s arrests of several fraternity members who are alleged to have taken part in illegal drug activity within Columbia’s fraternity houses on West 114th Street." In suspending the organizations, he also initiated an internal review for the fraternities as well as the Intercultural House (ICH) <ref>http://spectrum.columbiaspectator.com/spectrum/aepi-pike-psiu-receive-interim-suspensions </ref>. <br />

[[Image:FerrisCarman.jpg|thumb|240px|Ferris Booth Hall]]<br />
[[Image:LionsDenFerris.jpg|thumb|240px|The Lion's Den in [[Ferris Booth Hall]], Early 1960's]]<br />
<br />
The predecessor to [[Lerner Hall|Alfred Lerner Hall]], '''Ferris Booth Hall''' (known among students simply as '''FBH''', or in the 90s as '''FBiatch''') boasted magnificent campus views, a grand entry hall staircase, [[Wollman Auditorium]] (site of dances, receptions, amateur theatrics, etc.), a full-service commercial kitchen with extensive walk-in refrigeration facilities, broadcast studios for WKCR radio, a music and entertainment space known as "The Lion's Den," a six-lane bowling alley, a fifty-foot smallbore rifle range, billiards room, the facilities of the Student Beer & Wine service (staffed by the Student Bartending Service, and supplying beverage services within FBH, and at many other events across campus), and, in the Hewitt Lounge, an open-sided fireplace. Completed in 1960 from a design by [[w:Shreve, Lamb and Harmon|Shreve, Lamb & Harmon Associates]] (better known as the architects of the [[w:Empire State Building|Empire State Building]] among other NYC landmarks), it was razed in 1996. <br />
<br />
Prior to its construction, various locations around campus served the function of student center, most notably the second floor of [[John Jay Hall]], a space now occupied by [[Health Services]].<br />
<br />
Ferris Booth also featured an outdoor terrace that hosted numerous bands. [[w:The Grateful Dead|The Grateful Dead]] played Ferris Booth following the [[1968 protests]].[http://www.gettyimages.com/search/detail.aspx?id=528-248&esource=feed_google_video]<br />
<br />
[[Lerner Hall]] has none of these amenities. Instead, it has ramps and lots of big windows, which has lead to it commonly being compared to a rather generic airport terminal.<br />
<br />
[[Ferris Booth Commons]], a dining facility in Lerner, commemorates the former building. A plaque on the walkway outside the glass wall of Lerner also memorializes the old building.<br />
<br />
One of Ferris Booth's most notable features was that it was almost entirely student-run, in contrast to the maddeningly student-unfriendly Lerner Hall [[UEM]] bureaucracy. The use and operation of the building was coordinated by a large (~50 students) board known as the [[Board of Managers]] or BOM.<br />
<br />
== Citizenship Center ==<br />
<br />
[[Dwight D. Eisenhower|University President Eisenhower]] first proposed, but never seriously pursued, creating a "Citizenship Center" where students would develop "a greater sense of obligation and responsibility to the community". The "Citizenship Center" would be partially staffed by military officers. The goal of creating a student life centered around civic engagement was later partially fulfilled by the [[Citizenship Council]], founded by [[Steven Weinberg]]. The mission of Columbia's student centers since then has backed off from the second half of Eisenhower's plan, but still tries to uphold the first half, as exemplified in the [[Double Discovery Center]].<br />

<div>'''Student Affairs''' is the primary administrative umbrella for undergraduates at Columbia. Student Affairs oversees pretty much all non-academic aspects of student life for [[Columbia College|CC]] and [[Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science|SEAS]] students. Some of the many operations Student Affairs oversees include Residential Programming, Advising, etc. The current Dean of Student Affairs is [[Kevin Shollenberger]], who held the position on an interim basis but is now the man in charge. The senior associate dean in the office is [[Kathryn Wittner]].<br />
<br />
Student Affairs is the way in which the gap between CC and SEAS is bridged, since they're ultimately separate schools, academically. Creating a united student administration for both schools helps ensure that students in both schools are essentially part of the same student body who live together, eat together, and work together. This also keeps the bureaucracy from getting too messy by eliminating the need for redundant and parallel offices providing the same services to students at each school.<br />
<br />
Student Affairs was formed in [[1998]] as the Division of Student Affairs when the offices of Dean of Students at [[SEAS]], [[Office of Undergraduate Admissions|undergraduate admissions]] and [[Office of Financial Aid and Educational Financing|financial aid]], all overseen by [[Chris Colombo]], were merged with the office of Dean of Students at [[CC]] after the forced retirement of [[Roger Lehecka]] from that post. Colombo became the first Dean of Student Affairs, a post he held until [[2008]] before leaving for MIT. In [[2012]], the office dropped the "Division" from its name, becoming simply "Student Affairs".<br />
<br />
Don't confuse it with [[Campus Services]] (formerly "Student Services"), a university-wide administrative uber-office.<br />

<div>[[Image:Earl.jpg|thumb|240px|Earl Hall]]<br />
<br />
'''Earl Hall''' is Columbia's religious and community service HQ. Previously, Earl served as Columbia's student health center and had medical offices in the basement level. Designed by [[McKim, Mead, and White]], it was originally built in [[1900]]-[[1902]] as the outpost of the YMCA on campus before Columbia took over formal operation. <br />
<br />
Earl has some lovely rooms, including the Dodge Room overlooking Broadway, the Fireplace Room, and the auditorium on the upper floor, which is often used for "town hall" events. Most campus religious groups have an office in here. Ironically, the Chaplain's Office is not located here. She called dibs on a space in [[Lerner Hall]] when it opened. Her vacant office is now occupied by the head of [[CUIT]].<br />
<br />
Images of Earl Hall appear in two 2012 Columbia University Calendars, [http://www.zazzle.com/columbia_in_pictures_2012_calendar-158915066205441985/ Columbia in Pictures] & [http://www.zazzle.com/columbia_at_night_2012_calendar-158048888058598319 Columbia at Night]<br />
<br />
== Tunnel connections ==<br />
<br />
The Earl tunnels are among the more interesting ones on campus because they are relatively unused and not frequently cleaned or maintained. Expect to find a bunch of discarded beer cans scattered about, among other things. It's possible that there's a tunnel to Low Library, but this hasn't been discovered yet. [http://www.columbiauniversitycampus.com/#/restricted-access/Double-3-2/ Here's one view of Earl Hall tunnels.] [http://www.columbiauniversitycampus.com/#/restricted-access/Innards-9503/ And another view of Earl Hall Innards]<br />
<br />
<br />
===[[Mathematics]]===<br />
You must get into the sub-basement first, which is trickier than it seems. Until approximately 2003, the tunnels under []Earl could be easily accessed from a branch off of the north-south tunnel that extends from [[Dodge Hall]] to [[Havemeyer]]. Unfortunately, new construction has put a locked door at the top of the stairs that used to lead from this tunnel up into Earl, and there is no entrance into these tunnels from Earl itself. But fortunately, it's still possible to access these tunnels without having to break through locked doors because the building has several windows at ground level which can be used to enter the tunnels. Walk to the north wall of Earl and you will find that one of the windows has a pipe running through it. Pry up this window and enter. It is difficult because there are many layers of dried paint caked onto the window frame, but it will open. The exit to the tunnels is at the west end of the sub-basement. Mathematics is to your right once you go down the stairs into the tunnel. [[Havemeyer]] lies beyond. There are no alarms or cameras, but it is obviously risky to be in plain sight prying open a window to a building. Definitely never to be attempted during daylight.<br />
<br />
===[[Lewisohn]]===<br />
Same as the Mathematics connection, but instead you turn left. [[Dodge Hall]] lies beyond, and then [[Journalism]] and [[Furnald]] if you are lucky. Same security risks as above.<br />

[[Image:Earlbasement.jpg|thumb|left|Earl basement map]]<br />
The first map (of the Earl Hall basement) shows the building's old hospital configuration, which no longer applies. Note the "violet ray", an old quack medical device that used corona from electric sparks to supposedly heal anything. Also note the secret staircase in the doctor's library.<br />
<br />
[[Image:Earlsubbasement.jpg|thumb|left|Earl sub-basement map from 1940s]]<br />
The second map (of the Earl Hall sub-basement from the 1940s) is still largely accurate, except that the staircase is blocked off at the top.<br />

<div>The '''Student Governing Board''' (SGB) is the oldest of Columbia's governing boards and oversees political, religious, activist, humanitarian, and identity-conscious undergraduate student groups at Columbia. The board members are elected by representatives of each group at a general body meeting in the spring semester. SGB was created in the wake of the 1968 protests as a place for dialogue amongst students about the administration. With the revival of [[CCSC]] and [[ESC]] in the 1980s, SGB then took over as an overseer of the religious, political, and other "values-explorative" activities on campus, as chartered by the [[Board of Trustees]]. It represented groups from every student body in the University, although it has since been forced to limit its members to students from the four undergraduate schools.<br />
<br />
SGB reported to the [[Office of the University Chaplain]] in [[Earl Hall]] prior to 2007, when they were forced to move under the umbrella of CC/SEAS [[Division of Student Affairs]] (which already oversees [[ABC]] and [[Inter-Greek Council]]).<ref>[http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2007/01/22/implications-sgb-move IMPLICATIONS: SGB Move], Columbia Spectator, January 22, 2007</ref><ref>[http://www.columbiaspectator.com/2007/02/12/implications-system-marked-opacity-red-tape IMPLICATIONS: System Marked by Opacity, Red Tape], Columbia Spectator, February 12, 2007</ref> Because the SGB refused to be put under the creepy and unhelpful [[Robert Taylor]] and [[Student Development and Activities]]], the [[Office of Civic Action and Engagement]] (originally Office of Student Group Advising) was formed to oversee them. They were subsequently forced to divest of their student groups with large graduate student memberships, creating the [[IGB]]. <br />
