I would not advise anyone to go to the Columbia College Interdisciplinary Arts and Media or Book and Paper Department. My peers and I were treated most of the time like garbage told one thing in our interview, and advertising and then told a different thing when attending school. There were actually many good teachers there who had to work under a rigid system. Few students actually got what they needed. Poor communication, or no communication between departments and the students. Teachers were fired for in appropriate conduct, theory was taught at an undegraduate level, no access to equipment or studios, rude unhelpful critiques, poor advising, an utter disregard for the students career goals. Every year they told me it would get better, it only got worse, this was just more manipulation. Now the enrollment rate or this department is at an all time low.
