<p>As a Columbia College student, I’ll can tell you that around here, people do not refer to Barnard as Ivy-League. Barnard is/was one of the seven sisters, which are close to the ivy-leagues, but NOT ivy league. Don’t advertise your mother’s education like that becuause anyone who knows what they’re talking about knows that Barnard is not really an Ivy, even if the degree has a Columbia seal on it. However, technically, since the ivy-league is just a sports league, and Barnard students compete on Columbia teams, one could say Barnard students are part of the “ivy-league.” But in the most traditional sense, only Columbia College (and SEAS and GS to a lesser extent) carries the ivy label.</p>
