NYU, Columbia Faculties Backing Democrats

Submitted by CU Alum, Jan 16, 2008 13:45

The article mentions Sen. Clinton's (rather loose) ties to NYU and adds that she might have an advantage at Columbia because her husband's office is nearby, but overlooks the fact that Sen. Obama earned his B.A. from Columbia. This seems like a fact the article should have mentioned, since it is at least as pertinent as the article's details about Clinton.
