All the sororities are University-wide, so they’re intended for Barnard Greeks, too. Plenty of people join sororities, and they’re by default Columbia sororities.

The housing thing isn’t VERY common, since the system is confusing enough without worrying about the extra complication of cross-residency. Most people just don’t bother; they have enough friends at their own school that they’re not desperate to live with their friends at other schools. But you can, and I don’t think there’s much public opinion about it either way, except for the die-hard crazies.

As for men tension, I’ve always been of the opinion that if you’re upset at someone else that you’re single, maybe you should consider that it’s not THEIR fault? And if you’re upset because they stole a Columbia man away from you, maybe you need to raise your standards a little? I kid because I love (at least one of those Columbia men, anyway).

It’s not common to take most of your classes at Columbia. Generally because most people quickly realize that differences in classes depend a LOT more on the professor and the class itself than where it’s held, and just choose by what they want to take and what fits into their schedule. I think the “average” statistic for classes taken outside your own school is 1/3. But I (naturally) agree with churchmusicmom. While plenty of my Columbia classes were fine, all of my GREAT classes were BC.
