The current cost of a year's tuition including housing at Columbia University is $85,000. The prestigious Ivy League school is without a President at this time since the last one quit recently after just a year on the job. It seems the school sanctions free speech of all kinds and thus allows antisemitism on campus, which may be scaring off the lion's share of applicants.
Besides its location in the far upper reaches of Manhattan, a city now flooded with illegal immigrants living in hotels and a growing number of homeless living in the streets, and despite an out-of-control crime wave according to Mayor Eric Adams, Columbia still boasts some unique educational opportunities. For example, your child can study Gender & Sexuality in Korean Pop Culture or Psychology of the Gendered Body, both of which are offered this semester and certainly would lead to lucrative positions that would enable students to recoup the costs of tuition in no time.
But there is so much more. Columbia's Center for Jazz Studies offers a multitude of great courses. According to the catalog, "The Special Concentration in Jazz Studies is designed to prepare students to be well-prepared and flexible improvisers in a universe of change and possibility."
And who doesn't want that?
