In [[2024]], Class Days were moved to the [[Baker Athletic Complex]] as the [[Morningside Heights campus]] was sealed off as part of the fallout from the [[Gaza Solidarity Encampment]] clearance.
 In [[1944]] due to "wartime difficulties," Class Day for Columbia College was held without cap and gown.
