I was up in Morningside Heights during the 70′s & 80′s. I majored in political science and interviewed
Said for an alumni film. It took me decades to get the junk I learned at Columbia out of my head. When I visited the website of Obama’s church–their ideology looked like it was straight out of some of the soft science departments at Columbia University. A blast from the past.

I went to an Alumni meeting in the past year as Columbia President Bolinger was worried about alumni contributions falling because Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was interviewed at columbia–while the Minuteman president Jim Gilchrist was heckled off campus. Gilchrist was beyond the pale. Bolinger felt no need to defend columbia’s actions there. However there was considerable upset over allowing Ahmadinejad a forum to speak. Bolinger aquited himself well. He took some abuse. Contributions will return to normal levels after a couple years. Columbia is raising their endowment by 4 billion dollars so as to start work on a campus further uptown. Bolinger has raised half of that so far.

Columbia sees their role as presenting the world to an ignorent immoral illegitimate and weak USA.

The UN is king.

That was Obam’s context when he used Berlin as a platform from which to present himself as a “citizen of the world”.
