I attended Columbia University’s College of Physicians and Surgeons in the late seventies and early eighties, and two groups who stood out were the Bard Hall Players and Columbia University Marching Band. They were made up of talented, creative and hilariously irreverent students. Come on, has the administration lost the ability to laugh? Who wrote Plato’s Republic? is pure gold just as Who’s buried in Grant’s tomb?
- citywide-fondue 7y agoWhat are the two pieces you reference?
- vo2maxer 7y agoTo Columbia alumni, these two are well known and special: 1. Bard Hall Players: https://www.ps.columbia.edu/education/academic-programs/md-program/md-student-resources/office-student-affairs/p-s-club/clubs-12 https://www.ps.columbia.edu/education/academic-programs/md-p... 2. Columbia University Marching Band: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_University_Marching_Band?wprov=sfti1 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia_University_Marching_B... Edit: After replying, I realized you may have meant the last sentence with the questions. The “Who wrote Plato’s Republic?” is at the end of the New York Times piece. As to the other one, Who’s buried in Grant’s Tomb?, here: https://www.theatlantic.com/notes/2016/07/grants-tomb/492647/ https://www.theatlantic.com/notes/2016/07/grants-tomb/492647...
