Unlike you ( and no, I won't bother with your link ), I've known the history of Columbia, for, most probably, longer than you've been alive.

It was founded in the mid 1700s, as KING'S COLLEGE, and the name wasn't changed until it moved to its present site, at the end of the 19th century.

Oh sure, it had some Marxist and then full blown Commies profs, in the 2th century, but though the presidents, after Ike ( that's would be President Eisenhower; deary ), became more and more "squishy", it wasn't really until the 1970s, that the profs became more and more heavily lefty.

Not only did I grow up knowing quite a few of the profs there ( and also had some profs, at the college I went to, who had graduated from there and/or did graduated work there. before they taught and not a one of them were lefties!), but also remember, very well, the Quonset Huts, that were put up, on the campus, for the returning G.I.s and their families, who went there, after WW II, on the G.I. Bill.

Just because you find something on line, doesn't make it so.
