"The mission of the new Office of University Life will be to further the academic and community experience of students, faculty and staff at Columbia."
- Columbia University President Lee C. Bollinger
At the Office of University Life, our focus is on the University community.
Columbia is intensely diverse and robustly pluralistic -- with 16 schools and students, faculty and staff from myriad disciplines, backgrounds and experiences. Yet we share a collective commitment to advancing learning and knowledge at the highest level, and to sharing these efforts throughout the world.
The Office of University Life is your hub for University-wide student life information and initiatives.
