Obama transferred from Occidental College to Columbia University in 1981.
According to the New York Times, Obama "suggests in his book that his years in New York were a pivotal period: He ran three miles a day, buckled down to work and 'stopped getting high,' which he says he had started doing in high school.
Yet he declined repeated requests to talk about his New York years, release his Columbia transcript or identify even a single fellow student, co-worker, roommate or friend from those years."
Campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt told the newspaper in October 2007, "He doesn’t remember the names of a lot of people in his life."
Obama claimed to be a part of the Black Student Organization and anti-apartheid activities. But according to the New York Times, several well-known student leaders did not recall his involvement.
Fox News made contact with 400 of Obama's classmates. No one remembered him.
The Columbia University chapter in Obama's life remains blank, according to the New York Sun.
"The Obama campaign has refused to release his college transcript, despite an academic career that led him to Harvard Law School and, later, to a lecturing position at the University of Chicago," the Sun reported in September 2008.
"The shroud surrounding his experience at Columbia contrasts with that of other major party nominees since 2000, all whom have eventually released information about their college performance or seen it leaked to the public."
According to the New York Sun, a program from Columbia's 1983 commencement ceremony lists Obama as a graduate. University spokesman Brian Connolly confirmed that Obama graduated with a major in political science but without honors. Nonetheless, he was later admitted to Harvard Law School.

“bam”
Yes and if you worked in the hospital on the day the future president was born, you would remember that too.
I don’t believe anyone from Hawaii has come forward and said
perhaps even jumping up and down with pride, “I was there when Obama was born” Not another mother, not a staff person etc. Does anyone know if anyone saw the new baby within a day or so of birth?
“Yawnnnnnnnnn........”
If you’re that tired then go back to sleep.
Kinda weird, ain’t it?
So wierd, 95% of politicians are by nature quite gregarious. Nixon is the only exception, and whether you liked him or not, he was quite strange, and a little scary.
there’s always some “fame craver” to crawl out of the woodwork.
only larry sinclair has commented extensively.

You are exactly 100% correct.
Barack Hussein Obama is a cipher in the mist, a ghost, a phantom. Nobody knows him, his childhood is shrouded in utter mystery, school records are vanished, and no birth certificate...yet he is POTUS. We live in crazy times.
Someone on the inside at Columbia created a record of attendance there. The school was a hotbed of radicalism is the 60s and 70s (Cloward and Piven were faculty members there), and still is today.
and he had a “mean” five-o’clock shadow.
Is that THE ONLY evidence?
Even if you don't have your pic in the yearbook, they normally still list your name, very odd.
Obama is going to have the smallest Presidential Library.
Zer0 was a programing of Ayres, George Wiley and Cloward-Priven...the perfect Manchurian candidate.
thank you, bookmarked for later.
Well, ya know: you run something that was a yawner back in October,2007, and try to pretend it’s a big deal.
It was a pretty hot topic before the election.
will be filled with all the collectibles that never sold during the election, and all the brown nosing, MSM declarations of “Godness”; maybe even the “tingly leg”.
nothing of substance.
can’t stand Soros.
