<p>With all due respect, rejecting potential students is sort of Columbia’s thing. Just look at the numbers, really. And this board is anything but an official subsidiary of CU. Just another internet msg board.</p>
<p>It’s honest current students giving their time to share their opinions on a process they left behind years ago out of nothing nothing but nostalgia and altruism (the 2008-version of altruism). It’s really a unique (and direct) point of view that’s not available anywhere else on or off the web- I say this as an applicant who immensely benefited from it last year. </p>
<p>Granted some of the comments on this thread do border on personal attack but yknow, this is not the nicest of applicants and we’re not that old! Maturity doesn’t just pop once you graduate from high school/college/grad school/starting position. Especially on the web…it has a tendency to bridle on everyone’s part.</p>
