New page

The '''Visitor's Center''' is located in 213 [[Low Library]]. It's immediately to the left of the bust of Athena when you enter.

All tour's of the university originate at the Visitor's Center. Though technically a 'University' visitor's center, it's clearly geared towards prospective undergraduates. The desk is generally manned by undergraduates, and [[Columbia College]] and [[SEAS]] bulletins are strewn liberally around the room. There are no [[GS]] bulletins.

Of interest to current students are the bits of Columbia history displayed around the room. Old badges, pins, yearbooks, postcards, pamphlets etc. give the room a feel of tradition and history that's more or less lacking in any actual student space on campus that isn't some administrators office. Interestingly there is a substantial amount of old GS and JTS paraphernalia on display.

Information for tours can be found at the [http://www.columbia.edu/about_columbia/visitor_info.html Visitor Info] website.
