To settle the issue once and for all: clearly some people perceive a difference between the two colleges. Whether or not those people are members of groups that matter (e.g. ad coms, highering managers, exciting people at a dinner parties) is an open question. My general sense is "no".
Also, outside of Columbia alums and people who see the occasional GS advertisement in a local paper, I doubt anyone would even know that such a division exists. I mean, its not like studying Columbia's organizational structure is a national obsession.
The diplomas are different. Both CC and BC have Latin diplomas, but GS and SEAS have English diplomas. GS and CC have different but overlapping core requirements. I don't know of any instances where a major is offered at one or the other, or there is a difference in major reqs. Maybe someone else on the board does?
