This Friday, nine students will depart for Amman, Jordan in a sponsored trip for their major. They are seniors who have endured the many all-nighters and all-dayers that characterize the life of Columbia’s architecture students. Every year, what starts with around 40 or 50 freshman and sophomore potential majors slowly dwindles to a small tight-knit group of students who all graduate with architecture degrees and enter a surprisingly large array of fields. They are the proud, the computer-and-popsicle-stick-proficient—the architecture majors in the Columbia-Barnard joint program.
