Major: Business - Management and Administration (This Major's Salary over time)
I studied Arts Management and I'll probably end up going back for teacher certification. Columbia is what you make of it. DO NOT come here if you want your hand held for good grades and finding a job or friends. There are resources that need to be sought out, and they could admittedly be pushed more by the college, but it is what it is. My major was okay, but I had the most fun in the Liberal Arts department, particularly African-American Studies. These professors were incredibly passionate and challenging. The biggest weakness is financial aid, although tuition is nowhere near $40,000 a year. Don't believe immature whining about things out of the school's control. Columbia tries to be welcoming and to foster a free and creative environment which is not common at other schools. If you like this type of education, go for it!
