 '''Concert on the Steps''' is a concert held annually every spring. It is part of [[Bacchanal]].

-Artists are chosen each year by [[Bacchanal Events]]; the organization claims to have been consistently ahead of its time for the last decade by inviting groups on the cusp of hitting it big. Unfortunately, this means that current students frequently complain about never getting performers who have already hit it big. Students also frequently complain about the frequency with which rap and hip-hop groups are featured, as opposed to other genres. Relatedly, Columbia students complain a lot.
+Artists are chosen each year by [[Bacchanal Events]]; the organization claims to have been consistently ahead of its time in the 2000s by inviting groups on the cusp of hitting it big. Unfortunately, this meant that students frequently complained about never getting performers who have already hit it big. This was alleviated in the mid-2010s with the start of a new trend of booking washed-up rappers. Students also frequently complain about the frequency with which rap and hip-hop groups are featured, as opposed to other genres. Relatedly, Columbia students complain a lot.

-Unlike the annual concerts funded by [[:Category: Donors|outside donors]] at [[Brown|other]] universities, the concert is paid for entirely by student fees.  As Bacchanal is a recognized student group under [[Activities Board at Columbia|ABC]], they receive most of their budget directly from student life fees.  The councils have, in the past, co-sponsored the concert by adding some of their money, as well.

The undergraduate deans have also contributed funds. Beginning in 2015, funding became more directly overseen by the councils.
