Hello, friend and fellow Wikipedia editor!

I think the reason why your edits are being reverted and considered vandalism by User:Columbia Alumnus and many other people is because you are including the School of Continuing Education as a college of Columbia.

The Continuing Education school is not an undergraduate college of Columbia. It is a professional graduate school of Columbia.

There are many graduate schools that offer classes with undergrads at Columbia like the Law School, SIPA, School of Social Work,etc. But the reason why these are not included in the list is because they are graduate schools, not colleges.

Therefore, it should not be included here:

"A Columbia undergraduate class could include students from any of the following 'colleges': GS, Columbia College, the School of Engineering and Applied Science, or Barnard College."

Please consider these facts and reach an agreement before editing or the page may be blocked from editing for several MONTHS.

Thank you for the reply:)

Yes, we all know that SCE offers undergraduate programs. Many Columbia graduate schools offer undergraduate programs, but they don't count as undergraduate schools:

(Use this call number in the search function :10280)

But SCE is not a college. It is a professional extension graduate school. GS is a liberal arts college according to their website:

"The School of General Studies of Columbia University is the finest liberal arts COLLEGE in the United States created specifically for returning and nontraditional students seeking a rigorous, traditional, Ivy League undergraduate degree full- or part-time."

Therefore, SCE should not be included here:

"A Columbia undergraduate class could include students from any of the following 'COLLEGES': GS, Columbia College, the School of Engineering and Applied Science, or Barnard College."


 * Once again, please reach an agreement with the others BEFORE editing. If this happens again, you and the page will be blocked very soon.

SCE is not a college.
"No one disagrees that GS and continuing educatino take tha same courses"

I know.

SCE can take some of the same classes but it is not a college. So it can't be included here: "A Columbia undergraduate class could include students from any of the following 'COLLEGES': GS, Columbia College, the School of Engineering and Applied Science, or Barnard College."

GS is a college. CC is a college. SEAS is a college. Barnard is a college. SCE is not a college. It is a professional extension GRADUATE school.

GS is "SCHOOL" OF GENERAL STUDIS that offer both undergraduate and "POSTGRADUATE" program. SEAS is "SCHOOL" OF ENGINEERING AND APPLIED SCIENCE that offers undergraduate and "GRADUATE program" School of Continuing Education offers both undergraduate(non-degree) and graduate program

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 week for edit warring, as you did at Columbia University School of General Studies. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you would like to be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding the text, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first. During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. SarekOfVulcan (talk) 19:32, 14 July 2011 (UTC)
