The McGill of New York


Perhaps you've heard McGill University described as the Harvard of Canada or Canada's Ivy League University. I love the t-shirts you see around Montreal for Harvard, describing it as the McGill of America. While I'm stuck in NYC, I've been given access to the McGill of NYC, the Columbia University Butler Library, and I have fallen in love. Unlike at McGill, which also has a beautiful campus and beautiful buildings, the inside of Columbia's buildings are just as beautiful as the outside. I feel like I'm in an academic holy place while studying here. Hopefully I won't be here much longer though; I'll keep you posted on my status.
