Overview
When we arrived as fresh-faced freshmen some 650 strong in the fall of 1952, we soon discovered that there were many traditions that had been established over the years before our arrival in Morningside Heights which had helped those who had gone before us become the upstanding, reflective, and mature individuals Columbia hoped we would become. Joint activities between the colleges included a “Barnard-Columbia Playday” which featured sports competitions, a picnic supper, and square dancing. The objective was for the freshmen to break through the sophomore line of defense that surrounded the pole, scale it and retrieve the blue beanie. [...]it should be heartily encouraged. [...]if there is any one thing that ties me and my fellow classmates to students of Columbia College today, and to the Barnard students who will always have a special place in my heart, it is that we have shared an educational experience that has prepared us for life as no other institution I know of ever has. Alma Mater The author received his B.A. in philosophy and literature as a member of the Columbia College class of 1956.
