I don’t love snow for the same reasons most snow-lovers do. No, I love snow because of what it does to New Yorkers.

Students confined to campus

The balance tipping in favor of college community over urban interaction, while in large part due to the preferences and habits of students, is increasingly becoming a byproduct of financial necessity. A series of recent reforms will likely make off-campus engagement more unsustainable, shutting the gates between “Columbia University” and “the City of New York."

The poor image of science education and the restrictive structure of science curricula lead to unimaginative teaching and a society that is indifferent and unmotivated toward scientific progress.

Break out, take over

At the beginning of this school year, we wrote that Columbia activists ought to unite. This ideal hasn’t been fully realized, but we have seen a remarkable reorientation towards needs outside of our marble fortress.
