<p>I got the $150 one w/ the fancy matting, CU logo, etc. from the officially-licensed company that seems frames at the bookstore. It’s not directly facing the sunlight, but it’s on a wall adjacent to almost-floor-to-ceiling glass window.</p>

<p>Denzera’s talking about the newspaper from the Red Sox winning their first world series since 1918, breaking the curse.</p>

<p>to give the op at least one serious answer…nothing makes a columbia degree superior to all other degrees. obviously it’ll get you a bit more respect than a hofstra degree, but a columbia degree isn’t flat-out superior to a degree from most other elite colleges. you go to college for the experience much more than the degree. as for what makes the columbia experience better than any other college…it’s better for some, not for others. if you think it’d be the best college experience for you, then apply!</p>

Some of the better ones are linked in the Helpful Columbia Threads thread which is pinned to the top of the board. Read them. Come back with more specific questions afterwards and we’ll be overjoyed to cover new ground in answering them.</p>
