Institutions of higher educations exist for the benefit of their students, not the other way around.
Columbia should take heed.
In case you missed it, the university has prohibited the Columbia University Marching Band (CUMB) from performing at athletic events.
The prohibition is now in its second week of effect with no end in sight, and the university attributed it to CUMB failing to meet student governing board application deadlines. Columbia is moving forward under the assumption that CUMB will not be performing at events going forward.
