Ok, fellas, let's settle this issue once for all!

I am currently advising my student to apply to the GS program, and it seems like there is a division of the opinion here as to the perceive values of the Columbia GS diploma vs. Columbia College diploma.

One thing I am curious to know is that as long as all the majors that are available to the CC students are also available to the GS students and the actual diploma bears that elusive Columbia seal, would the GS diploma be virtually the same thing as the CC diploma?

I mean, no one would know (even if they ask) you whether you are a CC or GS student by the majors you have studied, right?
