Heh, I was thinking the same thing pta. I guess you can still be successful if you go to Columbia. That's great to know.

It's interesting that a lot of the Harvard rejects ended up attending Columbia...this makes me feel better about my impending HLS WL/rejection because this will probably be my path, too. :)

1. Get rejected from Harvard
2. Do something associated with Columbia
3. ????
4. Profit!!!

Methinks somebody at Columbia was pushing for this :D .
