My inquisitive nature demanded that I hone in. The dance major student admired the sculptures’ theme of movement through its distorted figure; the future architect remarked on its battered bronze skin; the art student noted the sculpture’s juxtaposition of realism and abstraction. Noticing that I was eavesdropping, they asked me, “What’s your take?” In a community of irrepressible learners, Columbia's...Read more...Supplemental Essay: Unique question posed by school364 WordsFor applicants to Columbia College, please tell us what from your current and past experiences (either academic or personal) attracts you specifically to the field or fields of study that you noted in the Member Questions section.

During what seemed to be an ordinary session tutoring Lilliana, my student since freshman year, she was gratified with my math homework help, but wished I could teach her all about my love of dance.

Maybe it's our Darwinian nature that causes us to lack compassion toward our fellow beings, but as a society, this psychological starvation evolves into the desensitization of humans to problems that do not affect us.
