这座大楼叫John Jay Hall,是本科学生的住宿楼。John Jay是美国的第一任大法官。按照规定,一年级的新生必须住在这里,到了高年级,学生可以在学校的其它宿舍楼中选择一个自己喜欢的去住。不过,这个大楼就在主校园内,一楼就是学生的食堂,生活非常方便。学生食堂基本上是包伙,凭学生证划卡进门,然后随便吃,别把自己肚子撑破就行。要是快撑破了,这个大楼里有医务室,马上去找医生,应该可以当作急诊处理。
Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science (popularly known as SEAS) is a school of Columbia University which awards degrees in engineering, applied physics and applied mathematics. Columbia, originally chartered as King's College in 1754, is the fifth oldest institution of higher learning in the United States. The Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science was founded as the School of Mines in 1863 and then the School of Mines, Engineering and Chemistry before becoming the School of Engineering and Applied Science. It was the country's first such institution. On October 1, 1997, the school was renamed in honor of Chinese businessman Z. Y. Fu, who had donated $26 million. Today, the Fu Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science is an exclusive and intimate engineering school. A student to faculty ratio of 10 to 1 allows SEAS to offer numerous research opportunities. The small engineering school also draws upon Columbia University's endowment, in excess of $5.94 billion dollars, and maintains close links with all of the university's graduate schools, as well as Columbia College.
